Om Kedainiaiunion(Sverige-Litauen)framgångsrikt utfört ?

[eugenlitwin]

Skulle Sverige bli fortfarande en stormakt?
Hur skulle se ut GDL idag (religion, ekonomi, politik) ?


The formation of this union was a result of strong separatist tendencies among the Ruthenian Protestant elite of the GDL, led by the Radziwill family; and if successfully implemented, it would have radically changed the balance of power in the Baltic Sea region.
The Union's main legal aim was the termination of GDL's federation with Poland and the establishment of a federation with Sweden. The GDL aspired to return to international stage as a self-governing subject; the Union meant a new, Scandinavian, alternative to the growing Polish domination, as well as to the threatening Russian domination.

Litauen var en gång ett av Europas mest vidsträckta riken, en levande del av maktspelet kring Östersjön och en kort tid i union med ¬Sverige.
