Nils Stensson Sture
Nils Stensson Sture (1512 – before 1527 or in 1528) may have been Daljunkern, the central figure of the second of the Dalecarlian Rebellions in Sweden.
Nils was born in 1512 as eldest son of the new ruler of Sweden, Sten Sture the Younger, Lord of Ekesiö, the country's Regent from January 1512 to his death on 3 February 1520; and his wife Dame Kristina Nilsdotter, a great-granddaughter of the late king Charles VIII of Sweden.
The boy received his name Nils in honor of both his late maternal grandfather Nils Gyllenstierna and his late paternal great-grandfather Nils Bosson Sture.
In early 1520, the Danish attacked Sweden, and Nils's father the regent
Sten Sture died from battle wounds.
The boy Nils was sent to safety in Danzig, under guardianship of Chancellor Peder Sunnanväder.
Later they returned, but King Christian II arrested them and the boy was kept in custody in Denmark.
In 1524 he was released by Frederick I, the new Danish king.
Nils got to Kalmar Castle, which was held by sir Berend van Melen, a supporter of the Stures, who then rebelled against the Stures' kinsman Gustav, the new king of Sweden.
Kalmar capitulated after king's troops isolated it, and young Nils was taken to Gustav's royal court.
As pageboy, he is mentioned having shown difficult behavior.
The question whether Nils Sture died at the age of 14 years or younger, before the revolt; or was "DaljunkernThe young lord from Dalarna"), the symbolical head of the 1527 revolt against king Gustav I of Sweden and claimant of the throne, has not been settled.
The rebel leader signed his letters "Nils Sture", but the traditional view, based on king Gustav's later propaganda, has been that "Daljunkern" was an impostor, a common farmhand named Jöns Hansson.
However, critical research has questioned that, and indications have been found to support that actually "Daljunkern" was Nils Sture and not an impostor.
Actually, in his contemporaneous letters, Gustav I himself did not refute the revolt leader's identity as Nils Sture.
The historian and author Lars-Olof Larsson has been the leading proponent for "Daljunkern" having been the genuine Nils Sture.
If Nils Sture survived one or a few years longer than official propaganda says and actually was "Daljunkern", then his biography goes on with the young man who attempted in 1527 to start revolt with Dalarna as base, to depose Gustav I from the throne.
Among the reasons for popular rural dissatisfaction was that Gustav I started to deprive the church of its worldly possessions, such as farmland.
The 1527 events started in February when bishop Peder Sunnanväder and archdean Canute Micaeli of Västerås, opponents of Gustav's measures, were tried and executed.
Soon after this "Daljunkern" surfaced in Dalarna.
In June 1527 king Gustav had the Riksdag of the Estates pass laws transferring ecclesiastical property and taxes to the king.
The revolt began in conservative Dalarna and spread to some other places. "
Daljunkern" led the revolt as pretender to the regency, claiming to be the lawful heir of Sten Sture.
In January 1528 he published a letter of three pages, proclaiming his position, and his promises to his supporters, including freedom from taxes for ten years.
Gustav I began to prepare an army to subjugate Dalarna.
"Daljunkern" fled to Norway, where he was treated as son and heir of Sten Sture the Regent, for example by Olavus, archbishop of Nidaros, by Dr Vincent Lunge, the governor of Bergen castle and leading potentate of the Norwegian high council, and the latter's mother-in-law the lady Inger of Austraat.
In February 1528, a rebel campaign was launched from Norway to Sweden.
The campaign, led by Peder Gröm, was an utter failure.
Later the same month, at Stora Tuna, under orders from king Gustav, leaders of the revolt were punished, including priest Jon of Sverdsjoe parish.
"Daljunkern" then fled from Norway to Germany, but was apprehended at Rostock, and later in 1528 executed after pressure from King Gustav.

The Wonderful Adventures of Nils
The Wonderful Adventures of Nils( orig." Nils Holgerssons underbara resa genom Sverige"; literally" Nils Holgersson's wonderful journey across Sweden") is a work of fiction by the Swedish writer Selma Lagerlöf.
It was originally published in two books, 1906 and 1907, and was first published in English as" The Wonderful Adventures of Nils" in 1907 and" Further Adventures of Nils" in 1911.
The two parts are usually published together, in English as" The Wonderful Adventures of Nils", but that name may also refer to the first part alone.
Selma Lagerlöf, like many leading Swedish intellectuals of her time, was an advocate of Swedish spelling reform.
When published in 1906, this book was one of the first to adopt the new spelling mandated by a government resolution on April 7, 1906( see Svenska Akademiens Ordlista).

Sten Sture the Younger, and famously led the Swedish resistance against Christian II of Denmark after the death of her spouse.

Place of birth
The place of birth( POB) or birthplace is the place where a person was born.
This place is often used in legal documents, together with name and date of birth, to uniquely identify a person.
As a general rule with respect to passports, the place of birth is determined to be the country that currently has" sovereignty" over the actual place of birth, regardless of when the birth actually occurred.
The place of birth is not necessarily the place where the parents of the new baby live.
If the baby is born in a hospital in another place, that place is the place of birth.
In many countries, this also means that the government requires that the birth of the new baby is registered in the place of birth.
Some countries place less or no importance on the place of birth, instead using alternative geographical characteristics for the purpose of identity documents.
For example, Sweden has used the concept of" födelsehemortdomicile of birth") since 1947.
This means that the domicile of the baby's mother is the registered place of birth.
The location of the maternity ward or other physical birthplace is considered unimportant.
Similarly, Switzerland uses the concept of" Heimatortlieu d'origineluogo d'origineplace of origin" in German, French and Italian respectively).
A child born to Swiss parents is automatically assigned the place of origin of the parent with the same last name, so the child either gets their mother's or father's place of origin.
A child born to one Swiss parent and one foreign parent acquires the place of origin of their Swiss parent.
In a Swiss passport and identity card, the holder's place of origin is stated, not their place of birth.
In some countries( primarily in the Americas), the place of birth automatically determines the nationality of the baby, a practice often referred to by the Latin phrase" jus soli".
Almost all countries outside the Americas instead attribute nationality based on the nationality( ies) of the baby's parents( referred to as" jus sanguinis").
There can be some confusion regarding the place of birth if the birth takes place in an unusual way: when babies are born on an airplane or at sea, difficulties can arise.
The place of birth of such a person depends on the law of the countries involved, which include the nationality of the plane or ship, the nationality( ies) of the parents and/ or the location of the plane or ship( if the birth occurs in the territorial waters or airspace of a country).
Some administrative forms may request the applicant's" country of birth".
It is important to determine from the requester whether the information requested refers to the applicant's" place of birth" or" nationality at birth".
For US citizens born abroad who under the US Constitution acquire US citizenship at the time of birth, the nationality at birth will be USA( American), while the place of birth would be the country in which the actual birth takes place.
