Talk:Gustav Vasa

message: Is there a link to a narrative here?  I'm a bit new to Wikipedia so I'm not sure.  If not, I can probably expand the article given time to collect some materials.  Let me know.

message: I find several Wikipedia pages giving rather divergent versions of the same events. Can somebody with a good knowlege of Swedish history try to harmonise them a bit?
Page: Nils Dacke
After this defeat the rebellion was all but over and Dacke became an outlaw. He was shot and killed in 1543 on the border between the two nowadays southern Swedish provinces Sm?land and Blekinge, then a border between Sweden and Denmark, while trying to escape from the king's mercenaries. Even though Dacke was not executed, his body was dismembered and the parts were sent for public display in larger communities that had supported him during the rebellion. Gustav Vasa ordered the annihilation of Dacke's entire family, but was milder against those who had given themselves up. Thus, the unity of the realm was restored.
Page: Dacke War
Dacke's forces were beaten and Dacke himself was wounded. The same year in August he was surrounded and shot in R?dby in Blekinge. Gustav Vasa carried through harsh punishments for the uprising. Dacke's home district was plundered and all his family members were executed or deported.

Nils was eventually betrayed by his own relatives, caught, and quartered; it is said that his body parts were displayed througout Sweden as a warning to other would-be rebels.

Dacke himself was shot while trying to escape to then-Danish Blekinge. Adam Keller 21:37, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

message: I thought that one of the resons for lutheranizing Sweden was to be able to confiscate all church bells which were melted down as payment for the Hansa's aid in defeating the Danes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jienz (talk • contribs) 15:02, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

message: Please see my note in the talk page for Olaus Petri, whose article I revised today and tried to conform with this one (but don't have time to do more). He and Laurentius Andreae received death sentences in January 1540, which were commuted two years later, but this article doesn't mention either that assassination attempt, conspiracy or kerfuffle.

message: MOVE to Gustav Vasa
This King is simply known as "Gustav Vasa" in all Swedish history books and encyclopedias. Doubt very much he was much known outside of Scandinavia. Boeing720 (talk) 22:43, 13 December 2017 (UTC)

message: It seems strange that this article makes absolutely no mention of the naval aspects of the campaign that brought Gustav Vasa to power. A key ingredient of the help that came from Lubeck was a fleet of ships. These were state of the art vessels (at a time of rapidly developing maritime technology) and were instrumental in, for instance, the blockading of Stockholm in the winter of 1522-23, so allowing capture of the city.
A useful summary of the history, from a naval point of view, is in the historical preamble to a paper on the investigation of the wreck of one of the ships in this navy This and other sources may be useful in righting the deficit.
