The people of Dalarna are rallying behind a minor noble whose protests against heavy taxation and economic restriction from the corrupt Danish government have united Swedish people of all classes. We now stand on a precipice: If we allow Danish domination to continue, this upstart's supporters will strike out against us. But if we back the rebels, we face the wrath of our ruling class. The next step must be carefully considered...

96historical_info = flavor_swe.2.historical_info Engelbrekt Engelbrektsson is a legendary and enigmatic figure in Swedish medieval history. In 1434, the peasants of Dalarna (The Dales) in Sweden had had enough of King Erik's crushing taxes and brutal methods of law enforcement. The peasants and miners, led by Engelbrekt and supported by certain factions within the Church and gentry, rose up in open rebellion. They captured castle after castle and soon controlled the greater part of Sweden. Meanwhile, Erik Puke had joined Engelbrekt in revolt in Finland. For two years, Engelbrekt was the de facto ruler of Sweden, but intrigue among the noblemen and infighting between Engelbrekt, Erik Puke, and Karl Knutsson finally resulted in Engelbrekt's murder at the hands of Måns Bengtsson Natt och Dag.
