Vasa dynasty (sh)




Swedish (and Polish) royal dynasty.

Its founder was Gustav Eriksson Vasa, regent of Sweden (1521) and king (1523) as Gustav I Vasa. His descendants reigned in Sweden until 1818, the last being Charles XIII. A grandson of Gustav became king of Poland (1587-1632) as Sigismund III Vasa, also ruling Sweden in the years 1592-99. He was succeeded as king of Poland by his sons, Wladyslaw IV Vasa (r. 1632-48) and John II Casimir Vasa (r.1648-68), after which the dynasty ended in Poland.
