I also travelled to Dresden in Germany where I met the re-enactor who plays Augustus Rex, who was Carolus’ cousin. Charles XII, also known as Carolus Rex, became King of Sweden on 5th April 1697 at the age of 15, following the death of his father Charles X1. r/ThisDayInHistory: A place to commemorate and discuss historical events which took place on this calendar day. An ill-fated decision to march 6,000 defeated troops across the Norway’s Tydal mountains resulted in almost two thirds of the men freezing to death on their journey. It's pretty good.

With 2018 being the 300 th anniversary of Carolus Rex’s death, Jakob and the Swedish Caroleans have become known outside their home country. After Carolus Rex was killed, Carolean soldiers were ordered to retreat home to Sweden. It's somewhat fascinating; he was shot in the side of the head (Warning: image of Charles XII's embalmed head with a huge hole right through his cranium), and we don't know for sure if he was shot by a lucky Norwegian soldier or if he was actually killed by one of his own men.
