Carolus Regnum is Alfonso's love-child of Sabaton and the fact that there isn't a "What if Sweden won the Great Northern War?" timeline on ah.com. As one may have guessed, the main POD is that Sweden wins the Great Northern War. Currently, it is still in a stage of backend-only development and has two maps to its name, although Alfonso may make another one if he decides to.

Point of Divergence[edit | edit source]

During the Great Northern War (1700-1711 in TTL), the Swedish Empire faced off against Denmark-Norway, Poland-Lithuania, and Russia. The first two states were quickly knocked out of the war after the treaties of Travendal and Altranstädt. Russia still remained, and the main Swedish army entered the tsardom, led by their king Charles XII. While the main army was marching into Russia, their supply force was intercepted by Russians. The supply convoy won the resulting battle and reached Charles's army in the Ukraine. After the victorious Battle of Poltava, where the now-replenished Swedish armies defeated the Russians and forced the surrender of Peter I, Russia made peace with Sweden at the Treaty of Helsingfors.

After all three treaties, Sweden gained lands in the Baltic and Gold Coast, as well as indemnities on various trading cities. The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was under Swedish influence, and Russia became barred from the Baltic.
