	Prince Oscar, Duke of Gotland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Prince Oscar of Sweden and Norway, Oscar Carl August (November 15, 1859 - October 4, 1953), Duke of Gotlandia, was the second son of King Oscar II of Sweden and Norway and his wife Queen Sofia, born a Princess of Nassau.
		Prince Oscar's marriage to Ebba Munck af Fulkila on March 15, 1888, which had not been given consent by the King, lost him the rights of succession to the Swedish throne and his title, however he was invested with the new title Prince Bernadotte.
		Oscar and Ebba had five children, the youngest of which was Folke Bernadotte.

		However, as Duke Albert was obliged by agreements made before election to leave unpunished the greatest excesses of the nobles, while the brutality of his vassals and mercenaries aroused universal indignation, it was resolved to elect Margaret Regent of Sweden.
		On the other hand Vasa's youngest son, Duke Charles, who had inherited both the good and bad qualities of his father, was able to drive his Catholic nephew Sigismund from the throne and to leave it to his son Gustavus II Adolphus, whose share in the Thirty Years War was of such far-reaching importance.
		As he was childless, he first adopted Prince Christian Augustus of Augustenburg and, after the sudden death of this heir, the French marshal, Jean Bernadotte, who accepted the election as crown prince and became a Protestant to secure the succession to the throne for himself and his descendants.
