SABATON - The Royal Guard (Official Music Video)

[@Sabaton]

One of the oldest military regiments in the world, the Swedish Royal Guard (Livgardet) was formed in 1521 by the Swedish King Gustav Vasa. For the past 500 years, they have been evolving with the times and have served various kings and queens. They are still active to this day.

[@lioneye101]

If anyone wants to know the history. This is the "Skirmish at Bender" after the Battle of Poltava where Charles XII of Sweden and his Royal guard defended themselves against an onslaught by the Ottoman Empire. 40 Swedish Soldiers defended themselves against many 100s of Ottoman Turks

[@dekuthetechpriestoflondon6791]

Damn Swedish people know how to make a last stand

[@goldosprey]

I was gonna say this didn't look like the Danes, the outfits reminded me of Jannisaries

[@Destinum]

Do note though that the whole fight came about because Charles was kind of a dick. He'd been a guest of the Ottomans for years, having essentially built a Swedish mini-colony around the estate he'd been given to stay in. Sweden was falling into ruin due to his absence, and his sister (who was acting as head of state at the time) sent letters begging Charles to come home, but he refused. The Ottoman sultan also thought he'd overstayed his welcome, so he told Charles to go home, but Charles refused. After repeated refusals like this, the sultan eventually had enough and decided to throw him out by force.

@@the_retag Yes, under the rule of the CCP, this place is even crazier and more deformed than Germany in 1933-1945. Every day socialist and fascist propaganda are constantly being broadcasted loudly on the campus. I was surrounded by rubbish songs praising the communist cult. I finally had this opportunity to play Sabaton’s songs to cleanse my ears that were hurt by the red virus. PS: I really want those white-left college students in the United States to experience this hellish nightmare life, and see if they continue to have silly ignorant fantasies about Marxism and socialism. What I hate most is communist cults and fake liberals. Without the music of sabaton and some other western bands, I would really be brainwashed and promoted to become mentally ill. Those stupid American/European fake liberals should come to China and North Korea to experience the evil iron curtain of real cultural Marxism and socialism. It's really disgusting brother here. Even if I send these messages to you, I have to bear the risk of being arrested by the PRC cyber police, so the more I do this, the more I respect cultural workers who can maintain traditional values ​​in the Western world.

[@mimlee2747]

@@Scorchxray In fact, in mainland China and Iran, young people prefer/receptive to Western cultural works. Europe and the United States are places with excellent cultural traditions.but unfortunately we are under the rule of the CCP and Mahaney. It is difficult for many people to access excellent Western cultural works. Often these cultural works will be considered by our evil communist totalitarian government as a cultural weapon of Western imperialism, and they are often prohibited from contacting them. Yes, our government is even afraid of songs! They are afraid of everything that is detrimental to their totalitarian rule and communist cult cultural system. After I played the song by sabaton that day, I was even warned by the leaders of our school that I would not be allowed to play this kind of Western free cultural works in the future, otherwise I would be dropped out of school. I really don’t understand why there are still people in American universities who have good feelings and fantasies about the evil things like the cultural Marxist ecosystem. They yearn for such evil totalitarian anti-human culturalism in a free country. . I think they really need to see a doctor

According to reliable sources, Swedes had 1.000 men (more or less) and combined Ottoman Jannisarries and local inhabitants of Bender reached 10.000 when skirmish happened.

After the defeat of Poltava, Carolus retreated to the Ottoman Empire seeking sanctuary from Russian forces. In the end, after Carolus made demands that the Sultan saw as too demanding, the sultan sent soldiers to capture or kill Carolus. These men, the Livgardet, did all they could to save their king. Distinguishing themeselves that day as they fought a force of 8,000-14,000 Ottoman soldiers. Alongside 40 Swedish soldiers, the Livgardet slew 200-433 Ottoman soldiers and Axel Erik Roos in particular saved the king three times that day. Ultimately the king would be captured but not after the building the defenders used was set on fire. Though the king was ultimately captured, the Livgardet will always be known as the most distinguished royal guard in history.

Some context on why they're fighting some Turks; After the decisive Battle of Poltava, the King with a small entourage went south to the Ottoman Empire, where he set up camp at Bender with some 1,000 soldiers, basically a refugee at this point. The Ottomans payed tributes to the King as he was really revered as this great undefeatable general, and ask him to leave and return to Sweden. But the King insist that he wants to stay (so that the Ottomans would attack the Russians). After some time, the Ottomans had enough use force to drive him out. A battle ensued, the Swedish were outnumbered and outgunned but they held out against the Ottomans. Only then, the King agreed to leave for his homeland.

Devotion to duty is not a bad thing and is in fact a military virtue in itself. If I might be pardoned referring to another military, the Foreign Legion makes a great deal out of Camerone, one of the classic shaftings they've had in their history and a far more comprehensive decimation of stubborn soldiers by a superior force.
