YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Charles XII, aka Carolus Rex -- boy, the difference growing up and sobering up can make. Sweden might be known as a big softy today, but back in the day it was a tough-as-nails empire with dreams of becoming King in the North. But when you're up against someone whose name ends with "The Great" chances are things aren't going to go your way. All the same, Charles the Almost-Great certainly gave the Great Northern War a jolly good shot.

The music used in this video in order of appearance:

The Swedish National Anthem

Kevin Macleod -- Mischief Maker

Richard Wagner -- Symphony in E Major

Kevin Macleod -- Crossing the Chasm

Imogen Heap -- Hide and Seek

Hillbilly Music Bed -- Audionautix
