(WitN Part 25) The Grodno Campaign

from The Drunken Scholar · host The Drunken Scholar

The year is now 1704, The Great Northern War has been raging for 4 years and Charles XII of Sweden has successfully knocked out Denmark from the war and won stunning victories against the coalition forces. Now, Charles will install his own choice candidate for the Commonwealth throne as the Commonwealth falls into a violent civil war. Meanwhile, over the next two years Sweden will achieve even more decisive victories in what will be known as the Grodno Campaign. By 1708 Charles will have successfully dethroned Augustus from the Commonwealth throne and knock out Saxony from the war. Sweden now stands from a strong position as Charles is finally able to plan out an offensive into Russia and hopefully end the war.
