I'm sorry to ask what must seem like a blatantly obvious question, but the Swedish throne has bypassed nearer claimants five times in its history - Erik XIV's son, Johan III's younger son, the Polish Vasas, the future Peter III of Russia and Gustaf IV's son.
I was simply wondering why there hasn't ever been a War of the Swedish Succession? And could there be one? And if so between who and when? And would the result be the OTL monarch on the throne or someone else?
Thoughts and feedback appreciated.
