How can we have Sweden remain a Catholic nation, at least officially? One idea is that in 1523, the Archbishop of Sweden, Gustav Trolle, catches a disease/is mauled by wolves/trampled by horses or is otherwise removed from the picture. With the post of Archbishop of Sweden vacant, King Gustav would have an easier time having his nominee, Johannes Magnus, approved, and would thus have less political reason to break from the Church. Could this lead to Sweden remaining Catholic? If not, what could? And what would the implications of a Catholic Sweden be?
