European Guardian: Winter 1741: Final Edition

Russian fire power too much for the Swedish army


Sweden now spelled Швеция
Frederick's last throw ends in tragedy

After losing Stockholm to the Russian invaders in the Summer of 1741, Frederick I of Sweden pulled in all his remaining forces from Norway and Pomerania together in a desperate attempt to liberate his capital and retain his monarchy. It was not to be as his army disintegrated in a short sharp battle. Frederick is now a lonely figure seeking sanctuary in the Royal Courts of Europe.

Frederick, without an army, flees the battlefield


Russia hold on the Europe's northern flank is consolidated.
