The first warfare during the Great Northern War – battle of Narva 1700, on the basis of Polish and Swedish historiography
Journal Title: Codrul Cosminului - Year 2013, Vol 19, Issue 2
Abstract
After the death of Charles XI the throne of Sweden took his 15-year-old son, Charles XII, and it was the beginning of Sweden’s international problems with other countries. Monarchs of Denmark, Russia and Saxony started negotiations, because they wanted to sign the anti-Swedish treaty. Every of them had plans to divide Sweden’s territory and took a part for itself. Nobody expected that Charles XII with almost no military experience will enforce the Danes to submit to the Peace of Travendal in August 1700, Saxony overcame after the siege of Riga and Russia during the battle of Narva. After the battle of Narva, where the Russians suffered a crushing defeat, Charles XII turned his attention upon the other powerful neighbor – Frederic I of Saxony (who was also the king of Poland as August II).
