Sweden king

Eric the Victorious 970 – 995

970

Around the year 985, the armies of Eric and Styrbjörn clashed outside Uppsala, culminating in Eric's victory. From that battle Erico is given the nickname of "the victorious". Erico would also have expelled King Svend I of Denmark and ruled in that kingdom after having carried out a march of conquest through Danish lands and avenging the support from the Danes to Styrbjörn. He ruled for a very short time as King of Denmark

Olaf Skötkonung 995 – 1022

995

Olof ordered to print coins with Christian motifs. Some understood the nickname Skötkonung, which would mean the treasurer king, it could be translated rather as king of the treasure, of the tax. In any case, the current Swedish rejects the idea that this nickname is derived from an alleged collection of taxes on her part, an idea that had been maintained in the past, and prefers another option, that the king was known as because he had to pay some kind of tax or tribute to the king of Denmark.

Anund James 1022 – 1050

1022

Anund allied himself with the King of Norway Olaf II Haraldsson (Saint Olaf) against King Canute II of Denmark. Despite the alliance, the Danes were victorious at the Battle of Helgeå. After this event it is not known if Anund continued to hold power in the kingdom. At that time, coins with the image of Canute appeared in Sigtuna, and apparently the latter would have been backed by the Swedes.

Emund the Elder 1050 – 1060

1050

He was King of the Swedes from 1050, the last monarch of the dynasty known as the House of Munsö. He was the son of Olaf Skötkonung and stepbrother of Anund Jacobo.12 The name of The Old Man is assigned to him because he began his reign when he was already about fifty years old.
He favored the English missions in Sweden to the detriment of the archbishoprics of Hamburg and Bremen. Together with King Svend II of Denmark, Emund established the first formal border treaty between Denmark and Sweden.

Stenkil 1060 – 1066

1060

Stenkil managed to control under his power virtually all of medieval Sweden. He is recognized in literature as a popular king. He was praised for having helped the bishop and missionary Adalvard to establish a bishopric in Sigtuna. It is said that Adalvard intended to set fire to the pagan temple of Upsala, but Stenkil prevented it; thus, Stenkil managed to prevent a probable rebellion of the pagan Swedes that could have turned into an event out of control.

Eric VII Stenkilsson 1066 – 1067

1066

By convention it is not given a royal number, since such numbering is based on the fictional work of Johannes Magnus, in which it is stated that Eric the Victorious (Eric VII) was immediately succeeded by a certain Ericus Aorfel, alias Stechillus (Eric VIII). It is likely that the passage refers to Erik Årsäll, although the similarity between Stechillus and Stenkilsson could indicate that it is a combination of both characters.

Eric the Heathen 1066 – 1067

1066

He was a pretender to the throne of Sweden. Little is known of him other than his name appearing in a quote from Adam of Bremen. He was the pagan Swedes' candidate for the throne of Sweden in 1066, in opposition to Stenkil's son, Eric Stenkilsson, who was the pretender supported by the Christian Swedes of Västergötland. His rule lasted only. The presence of two candidates for the throne triggered a civil war that would lead to the death of both on the battlefield.
