Another son - Knud – in 1232 (dies 1257), a daughter – Dagmar – in 1234 (dies 1262), and another son – Erik – in 1238 (dies 1280).
Following the habit of his father, his own son is crowned as co-king alongside his father as Knud VII at the tender age of 16 in 1246.
To secure Danish influence in Norway and Sweden, he is at the same time made Duke in both Viken in Norway and Västergötland in Sweden, thus putting the most pro-Danish region in both countries under Danish control, albeit with the Norwegian and Swedish kings as liege.

 The Pretenders - a play by Henrik Ibsen
This play is concerned primarily with the characters of Skule and Hakon: Skule, the king by actual right, Hakon the king "by confidence." The author has taken an old story and put a distinctly modern theme into it.
Bishop Nicholas says to Skule, "The right is his [Hakon's], for he is the fortunate one; 'tis even the summit of fortune, to have the right.
In The Pretenders, Hakon says, "At last, then, I am King of Norway," and Earl Skule replies, "But I rule the realm." If it were not for this disquieting remark, the first act might almost stand as a complete one-act play.
