Magnus IV unites Sweden and Norway
June 1319
A three-year-old Swedish prince inherited the Norwegian throne from his grandfather Haakon V, creating a personal union of two Scandinavian crowns that would endure for decades. Regents governed on his behalf; the boy king would rule for four fractious decades, lose Scania to Denmark, and die forgotten in a Bergen boatwreck.
