When Gustav Vasa gained the Swedish throne in 1523 the country comprised what is now Sweden proper (with the exception of certain regions in the south and west) and Finland.*The northern border and the Russian border to the east were indeterminate in the vast wilderness, with only the Baltic Sea and the Gulf of Bothnia constituting clear boundaries. Of the total population of around one million, most pursued farming, stock-rearing, hunting and fishing. A few districts had some mining and metalworking, but the domestic economy was based on barter, with a few small towns and little foreign trade.KeywordsFifteenth CenturyEuropean PowerCharles VersusPeasant RevoltTrade ConcessionThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
