They were called Hakkapeliitta, because of their infamous war cry ''Hakkaa Päälle" which means "Cut them down!" It struck fear into the Germans whenever they heard it.

His passion became being a great ruler to his people and at the age of 16 when his father died His generals were so taken by the young king that even though he was only suppose to take the throne once he was 21, he did anyway.

Being a Sabaton fan brings with it an incredible amount of history. Look up Smoking Snakes. Brazilians fighting Germans in Italy in an English song sung by Swedes with a Czech lead singer with a lyric in Portuguese. Doesn't get much more diverse than that.

One of my favorites songs from Sabaton! I have a dream that one day Sabaton will do a song about the Empire of Brazil (Paraguayan War, maybe), D. Pedro II (the greatest brazilian citzen, our emperor), Duque (Duke) de Caxias (patron of the Brazilian Army) or about our independence from Portugal (this last suggestion would be a GREAT song, imagine the chorus something like "Indepence or Death", shouted by our first emperor, D. Pedro I. Hail from Brazil!
You already have "Smoking Snakes" about Brazilian troops, leave some songs to the others! France or the Netherlands never had a song about their history, for exemple..
I understand your point of view, and I agree with you.... All countries from Europe has great histories, and I don't know if those countries are suffering from what Brazil is suffering in the last 20 years (or more). Here, our history has been forgotten, in the schools the teachers don't tell the truth about Brazil's history and make the brazilians believe that this country was aways a "bad place" with no history. You mentioned the "Smoking Snakes" song (It's my favorite from Sabaton, obviously haha), but if I tell to you that here have people that don't know about this history? There are people that don't know that Brazil went to WWII.. We're restoring our patriotism, and if Sabaton do a song about the themes that I mentioned in my first commentary, will be a great path and pride for our people. I hope I didn't sound selfish in this, and I hope you understand. If something is spelled wrong, sorry for my English. Metal forever! \m/

Take the scepter from its hand
(Oh oh oh you lion from the north
Ooh you lion from the north)
Legends have taught battles fought
This lion has no fear at heart
Lion come forth come from the north
Come from the north
Gustavus Adolphus
Libera et impera
Acerbus et ingens
Augusta per augusta
Gustavus Adolphus go forth libera impera
(Gustavus Adolphus Libera et impera)
Acerbus et ingens go forth libera impera
(Acerbus et ingens Augusta per augusta)
Bruh it's a lyric video
@@ethelegend27 you cant sing if you don't have the lyrics beforehand
Man, we have the lyrics there, srry
thanks! who cares what these other fools say! you my friend are a true supporter of Sabaton.
When the Catholic kid starts getting annoying and you're Swedish
In this week of the celebration of the Lion's birthday, let it be known his roar is still heard down the centuries.
Being a Sabaton fan brings with it an incredible amount of history. Look up Smoking Snakes. Brazilians fighting Germans in Italy in an English song sung by Swedes with a Czech lead singer with a lyric in Portuguese. Doesn't get much more diverse than that.

This isn’t how you’re supposed to play the game!
Mr. Worlwide'nt
The whole album is about swedish history
@@zyriuz2 That’s an r/wooosh right there
@@zyriuz2 The first step on the road to recovery is admitting there’s something wrong with you.
When you're playing as Sweden and have already converted to Protestant in 17 th century and this song is playing together when you're finally have 20 technology,100% Army Professionalism,100% discipline and your Kings has 5/5/5 stats
"I have resolved never to start an unjust war but never to end a legitimate one except by defeating my enemies" Carlos Rex, to Voltaire
Charles never said that to Voltaire. They never met.
When you dedicate your life to making music about the worlds history, you have earned beyond dispute to be THIS METAL about your own history.
Sweden is a Awsome country and I wana go there someday. Love from Yr friend from Serbia. 🇷🇸

You know when you love this song when starting to sing loud and a tear is falling.

Back when Sweden would not bend over pants down beacuse someone called him racist
Samthing , wrong in so many ways. The swedish mainland was so depleted at times boys barely men and elderly would be conscripted. Finland was at the time basically Swedens eastern mainland and was a core of the swedish empire. Finnish men were for sure conscripted att mass butt just as much as other parts of Sweden. Tired of this propaganda. Damn finnish nationalist forgetting yoyr mother. Svea moder är fortfarande med er.
Greetings from Point Roberts
I think we can all agree that Sabaton is the new Lion from the North
Amazing
''According to Napoleon, Gustavus Adolphus was the best general to ever live.''
The Hispanic monarchy in Nordlingen 1634 didnt think the same...
Gustavus Adolphus died 1632 ! He wasn`t the commander in Nördlingen ! That was a tragedy for the protestants !
Lmao Spanish Armada.
@@Rosencrona Are u talking how Drake was defeated by a short force in A coruña? Yeah you should read it. The armada was nothing how compare with it the english crisis
@@Harald1952 Yeah and Sweden shows how was a cat comparing with the castillan lions in europe. Bull shit propagand the Lion from the North
@@eduardofernandezanton6168 No. I'm talking about Spain's failed invasion of England.
But then why are you on this video, Eduardo? Are you here to compensate for something?
Hasburgs be like "why do I hear boss music?"
One of my favorites songs from Sabaton! I have a dream that one day Sabaton will do a song about the Empire of Brazil (Paraguayan War, maybe), D. Pedro II (the greatest brazilian citzen, our emperor), Duque (Duke) de Caxias (patron of the Brazilian Army) or about our independence from Portugal (this last suggestion would be a GREAT song, imagine the chorus something like "Indepence or Death", shouted by our first emperor, D. Pedro I. Hail from Brazil!
You already have "Smoking Snakes" about Brazilian troops, leave some songs to the others!
France or the Netherlands never had a song about their history, for exemple..
I understand your point of view, and I agree with you.... All countries from Europe has great histories, and I don't know if those countries are suffering from what Brazil is suffering in the last 20 years (or more). Here, our history has been forgotten, in the schools the teachers don't tell the truth about Brazil's history and make the brazilians believe that this country was aways a "bad place" with no history. You mentioned the "Smoking Snakes" song (It's my favorite from Sabaton, obviously haha), but if I tell to you that here have people that don't know about this history? There are people that don't know that Brazil went to WWII.. We're restoring our patriotism, and if Sabaton do a song about the themes that I mentioned in my first commentary, will be a great path and pride for our people. I hope I didn't sound selfish in this, and I hope you understand. If something is spelled wrong, sorry for my English. Metal forever! \m/
Malo Flory Resist and Bite is about the French resistance.
@@robertcurry8284 it's about Belgians not French,
Im Polish, my ancestores were fighting with him and I must say, thx adolphus, because of you we were force to fight in partizant style and find out we were best in it.

Greetings from Pittsburgh Pa USA
Sabaton is the best historical band ever! They make songs that will be sung for centuries!!
Idk what it is about sabaton but they make me everyday listen to their songs
A time of religion and war,
Legends tell the tale of a lion
This beast in the shape of a man,
With a dream to rule sea and land
And all those who stand in his way,
Will die, by God and victorious arms
With the righteous that follows him south,
Once more, set ashore, to war
Legends have taught, battles fought,
This lion has no fear at heart
Lion come forth, come from the north,
Come from the no-o-o-o-ort
Gustavus! Adolphus!
(Gustavus Adolphus go forth, libera, impera)
Libera et impera!
Acerbus et ingens!
(Acerbus et ingens leo, libera, impera)
Augusta per augusta
A storm over Europe unleashed,
Dawn of war, a trail of destruction
The power of Rome won't prevail,
See the catholics shiver and shake
The future of warfare unveiled,
Showed the way, that we still walk today
Der Löwe aus Mitternacht comes,
Once more, he is here, for war
Stories of old, truth unfold,
Control over Europe he holds
Freedom he'll bring,
Lion and king, lion and king
Mighty eagle rule alone
Liberator claim the throne
Lion from the northern land
Take the scepter, from its hand
Oh, oh, oh you lion from the north,
Ooooooooh you lion from the north
This is the first Sabaton song I heard. It happend 4 years ago, and it still has a special place for me. GUSTAVUS! ADOLPHUS!
Pro tip: play the chorus of this song every time you charge straight into the enemy team and you will always win
They sing The power of Rome won t prevail. See the Catholics shiver and shake. Lion come forth. Come forth from the north. Lion and King. Lion and King. Awesome Faith song.
This is a really powerful song about charismatic and Interesting individual.
