For some reason the first upload of this episode didn't work on the Flatpack feed, so here's the re-release!
It is time to judge our first ever ruler, the first king of Sweden, Olof Skötkonung!
We cover the life of this interesting character who straddled eras, as we enter a country in the dying days of the Viking period. Will Olof do enough to win the coveted Kingdöm prize of The Three Crowns, or is his life story a bit of a bore?
Here are some maps which might handy too: https://aflatpackhistoryofsweden.com/about-the-podcast/maps/
Be sure to search for Kingdom: Swedish Rulers and follow the feed there to get all the episodes going forward. Only episodes 1 and 2 will be posted here on the Flatpack feed. You can also find out more information on our website: https://aflatpackhistoryofsweden.com/kingdom-swedish-rulers/
P.S. The podcast is called Kingdom: Swedish Rulers, but we will use the fancy Swedish Ö letter in some of the logos, because we like it!
