Why is he not remembered at all? Despite being a great strategist and tactician even Swedes know little about him.
>>1695562
Because he was gay.
>>1695562
Because the swedish empire, apart from the 30 years war, was irrelevant for western europe.
>>1695562
well he's no Gustavus Adolphus
>>1695562
He kind of pales in comparison to the guy who beat him. I remember him, anon. I remember Poltava.
>>1695562
Sweden doesn't really like to talk about anything that could possibly inspire nationalist feelings.
>>1695562
ummm because he's a f*cking white male?

Howdy.

Attrocious strategist. I like the guy for being one of our history's greatest military leaders but I find it absurd that anyone could possibly think of him as anything else than a complete and utter fuckup as a king and ruler
>>1695562
he was a fucking meme, Adolphus the great is best Swedish king
>>1697086
You spelt Karl XI wrong
>>1697086
He was the bitchboy of France.
>>1695562
He's a high elf.

>a great strategist
Have to disagree with this, turning against Poland instead of crushing the disarmed Russians once and for all after Narva was one of the greatest strategic mistakes in European military history.
