Dano-Swedish War of 1658 - 3 Minute History

The transcript details the conflict between Sweden and Denmark during the mid-17th century. Sweden, under Charles X, expanded its territory, leading to a series of conflicts with Denmark. Despite initial Swedish successes, including a siege on Copenhagen, the intervention of Dutch forces and the formation of an allied army by Austria, Poland, and Brandenburg turned the tide. The conflict saw various battles and sieges, with both sides unable to secure a decisive victory. Peace was eventually brokered after Charles X's death in 1660, resulting in territorial adjustments that largely remain today.
