He has been claimed to be Sweden’s worst king and is best known for having eaten himself to death on rolls. Vetenskapsradion Historia takes this fat Tuesday to pay attention to the fact that it has been 250 years since the semlekungen fell off the stick and talks with the historian Mikael Alm about Adolf Fredrik’s failed attempt to gain more power during the Sweden of the time of freedom. And so we sort out the semlan’s history and guilt until the king’s death.
In addition, Dick Harrison answers a listener’s question about the Roman Empire’s plans to conquer Sweden.
The host is Tobias Svanelid.
