Gustav Eriksson (Vasa) descended from Birgitta Gustafsdotter (Sture), the sister of childless Regent Sten Sture the Elder who had died in 1503 when Gustav was a baby.

Gustav I of Sweden - Early life: Encyclopedia II - Gustav I of Sweden - Reformation

After seizing power, the previous Archbishop Gustav Trolle, who at the time held to a post of some kind of chancellor, was exiled from the country. Gustav sent a message to the pope requesting the acceptance of a new archbishop selected by Gustav himself: Johannes Magni. The Pope sent back his decision demanding the unlawful expulsion of Archbishop Gustav Trolle to be reverted, and that the archbishop was to be reinstated. Here Sweden's remote geographical location proved to have a marked impact—for the former Archbishop had been al ...

Gustav I of Sweden - Early life: Encyclopedia II - Gustav I of Sweden - Heritage

Gustav's heritage has been disputed. In 19th century Swedish history, a folklore developed wherein Gustav was to have experienced all kinds of adventures when he liberated Sweden from the Danes. The memory of Gustav has been honored greatly, resulting in embroidered history books, memory coins, and the annual ski event Vasaloppet (the largest ski event in the world with 10,000 participants). The city of Vaasa in Finland was named after the royal house of Wasa in 1606. However, today most of these stories are regarded to have no other foundation than legend, and a skillfu ...

Gustav I of Sweden - Early life: Encyclopedia II - Gustav I of Sweden - Further reign

Gustav encountered resistance from some areas of the country. In 1542, people from Dalarna rebelled, as they considered the king to have been too harsh on everyone he perceived as a supporter of the Danish. People down in Smalandia rebelled later, and initially gave Gustav difficulties in the dense forests. What he did was to send a letter to the people of Dalarna, and requesting that they should send out letters to every Swedish province, saying that Dalarna would support the king with troops, and urging every other province to do the same. Gustav got his troo ...

In the late 1550's, Gustav was broken by bodily troubles. This has been confirmed when his grave was opened in 1945 and his corpse examined. It was discovered that he suffered chronic infections of a leg and in his jaw. He held a so called "last speech" in 1560 to the chancellors, his children and other noblemen whereby he encouraged them to remain united. In September 29, the same year, Gustav died of a severe colonic disease. He is buried tog ...
