King
Gustaf V of Sweden I strongly believe that this was the first king in northern Europe due to the north was too cold to live in and only Eskimo lived there and they killed them all during the first world war or towards the end of 1890s then divided the north as the Scandinavian countries as we know them now and created many fake history books to force our mind to accept that they have always been kings and that they are good people, but they did not treat me good they kept me letterly as slave all my life and since 2006 I am just busy documenting everything to help others. In other words they are the real Mafia and every mafia you here about is the distraction of the real on, which is my fake and biological families. With the all new technologies invented in the 1800s you can live in North pool. |

Gustaf V of
Sweden From Wikipedia,
the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation,
search
Gustaf V (Oscar Gustaf Adolf 16 June 1858
– 29 October 1950) was King of Sweden from 1907. He was the
eldest son of King Oscar II of Sweden and Sophia
of Nassau, a half-sister of Adolphe,
Grand Duke of Luxembourg. Reigning until his death at age 92, he holds
the record of being the oldest monarch of Sweden and the second-longest
reigning (after Magnus IV). Ascending to
the throne in 1907, his early reign saw the rise of parliamentary rule in Sweden, although
the leadup to World War
I pre-empted his overthrow of Liberal Prime Minister Karl Staaff in 1914, replacing him with his own figurehead
Hjalmar Hammarskjöld (father of Dag Hammarskjöld) for most of the war.
In 1917 he accepted Staaff's successor Nils
Edén to form a new government which de
facto stripped the monarchy of its virtual powers and had enacted universal and equal suffrage, including for
women, by 1919. Accepting the principles of parliamentary democracy, he
remained a popular figurehead for the remainder 31 years of his rule,
although not completely without influence - in the days of World
War II he allegedly urged Per Albin Hansson's
cabinet to accept calls from Nazi
Germany to logistics support which, if refused, might have pre-empted an
invasion, and remains controversial to date.
[edit] Early life Gustaf V was
born in Drottningholm Palace
in Ekerö, Stockholm
County, the son of Prince Oscar and Princess
Sofia. At birth Gustaf was created Duke of Värmland.
Upon his father's accession to the throne in 1872, Gustaf became crown prince
of both Sweden and Norway. On 8 December 1907, he succeeded his father on the
Swedish throne, which had been separated from the Norwegian throne two years
earlier. On 20 September
1881 he married Princess Victoria of Baden in Karlsruhe, Germany. She
was the granddaughter of Princess Sophie of Sweden, and her
marriage to Gustaf V united, by a real blood link (and not only so-called
adoption), the reigning Bernadotte dynasty with the former royal house of Holstein-Gottorp. [edit] Public life
Meeting of the
three kings in Malmö,
18 December 1914: Haakon VII of Norway, Gustaf V, and Christian X of Denmark. By inclination,
Gustaf V was a conservative man, and did not approve of the democratic
movement or demands for workers' rights. Theoretically, he was a near-autocrat
under the 1809 Instrument of Government.
However, his father had been forced to accept a government chosen by the
majority in Parliament in 1905. Gustaf V seemed
to be willing to accept parliamentary rule. After the 1911 elections netted a
massive landslide for the Liberals, Gustaf appointed Liberal leader Karl Staaff as Prime Minister, despite his own
conservative predispositions. However, during the run-up to World War
I, the elites objected to Staaff's defence policy. In February 1914, a large crowd of
farmers gathered at the royal palace and
demanded that the country's defences be
strengthened. In his reply — the so-called court yard speech — Gustaf promised to
strengthen the country's defences. Staaff was outraged, telling him that parliamentary rule
called for the Crown to stay out of politics. However, Gustaf retorted that
he had the right to speak to his own people. The Staaff
government resigned in protest, and Gustaf appointed a civil servant
government headed by Hjalmar Hammarskjöld (father Dag Hammarskjöld) in its place. After the 1917
elections showed a heavy gain for the Liberals and Social Democrats, however,
Gustaf was forced to appoint Staaff's successor, Nils Eden,
as prime minister. By this time, it was apparent that Gustaf could not keep a
government in office against the will of Parliament. He grudgingly accepted
the principles of parliamentary rule, and reigned for the rest of his life as
a model constitutional monarch. Gustaf V was
the last Swedish king to be Supreme Commander of
the Swedish Armed Forces (between 1907 and 1939). Gustaf V was
considered to have German sympathies during World War
I. His political stance during the war was highly influenced by his wife,
who felt a strong connection to her German homeland. On 18 December 1914, he
sponsored a meeting in Malmö with the other two kings of Scandinavia to
demonstrate unity within and between them. Another of Gustaf V's objectives
with this three-king conference was to dispel suspicions that he wanted to
bring Sweden into the war on Germany's side. [edit] Nazi sympathies Both the King
and his grandson Prince Gustav Adolf
socialized with certain Nazi leaders before World
War II, though arguably for diplomatic purposes. Gustaf V attempted to
convince Hitler during a visit to Berlin to soften his persecution of the
Jews, according to historian Jörgen Weibull.[1]
He was also noted for appealing to the leader of Hungary to save its Jews
"in the name of humanity." [2]
At the behest of American President Franklin D. Roosevelt, Gustaf V appealed to
Hitler for peace negotiations in 1938, "in the interest of peace".[3] When Nazi
Germany invaded the Soviet Union in June 1941, Gustaf V tried to write a
private letter to Hitler thanking him for taking care of the "Bolshevik
pest" and congratulating him on his "already achieved
victories".[4]
He was stopped from doing so by the Prime Minister Hansson. Nevertheless, the King sent the
message to Hitler (through a telegram by the German embassy in Stockholm)
behind the back of the Government. [edit] The 1941 Midsummer
Crisis According to
Prime Minister Per Albin Hansson, the
King in a private conversation had threatened to abdicate if the Government
did not approve a German request to transfer a fighting infantry division
– the so-called Engelbrecht
Division – through Swedish territory from northern Norway to
northern Finland in June 1941, around Midsummer.
The accuracy of this claim is debated, and the King's intention (if he did in
fact make this threat) is sometimes alleged to be his desire to avoid
conflict with Germany. This event has later received considerable attention
from Swedish historians and is known as midsommarkrisen,
the Midsummer Crisis.[5] Confirmation of
the King's action is contained in German Foreign Policy documents captured at
the end of the war. On 25 June 1941, the German Minister in Stockholm sent a
"Most Urgent-Top Secret" message to Berlin in which he stated that
the King had just informed him that the transit of German
troops would be allowed. He added: The King's
words conveyed the joyful emotion he felt. He had lived through anxious days
and had gone far in giving his personal support to the matter. He added
confidentially that he had found it necessary to go so far as to mention his
abdication. [6] According to Ernst
Wigforss, both Gustaf V and Prince Gustav Adolf
attempted to persuade the Swedish Government to allow the Allies to transport
troops through Sweden, though this was rejected by the Government because it
was felt it would cause retributions from Germany.[7] [edit] Personal life
Gustaf V was
tall and thin. He wore pince-nez eyeglasses and sported a pointed mustache for
most of his teen years. Gustaf V was a
devoted tennis
player, appearing under the pseudonym Mr G.
As a player and promoter of the sport, he was elected in to the International Tennis Hall of Fame
in 1980. The King learned the sport during a visit in Britain in 1876 and
founded Sweden's first tennis club on his return home. In 1936 he founded the
King's Club. During his reign, Gustaf was often seen playing on the Riviera.
On a visit to Berlin, Gustaf went straight from a meeting with Hitler to a
tennis match with the Jewish player Daniel Prenn.[8]
During World War II, he interceded to obtain better treatment for Davis Cup
stars Jean
Borotra of France and Gottfried von Cramm
of Germany, who had been imprisoned by the German Government. [edit] The Haijby
affair Allegations of
a love affair between Gustav and Kurt Haijby, a
wine wholesaler who sought to expand his business to the royal family, led to
the court paying 170,000 kronor under threat of blackmail by Haijby. This led to the so-called Haijby affair and several criticized trials and
convictions against Haijby which spawned
considerably controversy about Gustav's alleged homosexuality.[9] [edit] Styles
