Loving this content Nordin!
Thank you my friend!
Thanks for a good summary. I also think the kings brother may have been aware about the plans before it happened. But I´d like to add a few things. Yes, Anckarström was involved in a process about insulting the king, and theoretically it might have been a possibility for a death sentence, but I think Gustav III, in this case, actually intervened and had the charges canceled, or the punishment lessened or canceled. There were very few people executed in Stockholm during the period 1785-92, by the standard of this time. Gustav III was known for often giving clemency, and also he partly abolished death penalty, for several crimes, as he was affected by the enlightment movement. It´s similar to Eliabeth I of Russia - Eliazaveta Petrovna, ruling 1741-1762 - one of my favourite Russian rulers, who abolished death penalty and replaced it with expelling to Siberia. She was deeply religious christian, and did it for precisely that reason, swore to not have anyone executed, and Gustav III did it because of enlightment reasons. Yes the war against Russia wasn´t a "great success", but the last fighting ended with Swedish victories, and some say Sweden gained more independence, more manouverability, in relation to Russia at the peace treaty in 1790. It´s nice with the old streets you show, but the building that is shown when the royal palace is mentioned looks like the parliament building, not the palace itself. It is true that duke Karl got a position as regent, as Gustav III:s son, king Gustav IV Adolf, was only 13 years old when his father was murdered. The regency ended in 1796, wen Gustav IV Adolf could take over more power. The great change in the constitution that the conspirators had wanted was not established, but Karl, or even more one of his ministers, Reuterholm, got to rule with a lot of power 1792-1796.

3:02 interestingly enough Gustav III supported the american revolution, and among other things sent high ranking officers to america. Among others, Axel von Fersen.

Il ballo in maschera di Giuseppe Verdi ❤
He would not be excuted for insulting the king
ty for turkish translation
I think Ankarström just was a caffeine addict who got a bit edgy after being forced to quite coffee cold turkey
