Peace treaty of 1323 between Sweden and Russia assigned most of Finland to Sweden. In 1362, Finns were given the right to send representatives to the election of the king in Sweden, and in the16th century this right was extended to include representation in the Swedish Diet. In 1536 King Christian III had to pledge to the Danish noblemen that Norway was henceforth to be subservient to the Danish Crown, like any other Danish possession. The February revolutions of 1848 in many European countries have more mild parallels in Scandanavian countries.
Monarchy gives way to parliamentarianism.
