 | | Carl XII, Karl XII or Carolus Rex, (June 17, 1682November 30, 1718), the Alexander of the North, nicknamed in Turkish as Demirbaş Şarl (Charles the Habitué), was a King of Sweden from 1697 until his death in 1718. |
 | | His youth gave other nations a pretext to invade Sweden; Saxony, Denmark-Norway, Poland and Russia joined in a coalition to attack Sweden, beginning the Great Northern War. |
 | | There has been some speculation that he was not killed by a grapeshot-bullet but by one fired from the Swedish side, making his death an assassination (at the time he was not very popular in Sweden due to the hardships the people suffered because of the constant wars) but this remains inconclusive. |
