Dano-Swedish War

The Dano-Swedish War of 1657–1658, known in Denmark as the First Charles Gustav War in Norway as Krabbes Feud and in Sweden as Charles Gustav's First Danish War, was a conflict between Sweden and Denmark–Norway during the Northern War of 1655–1660. In 1657, Charles X Gustav of Sweden and his Swedish army were Fighting in the Poland. Frederick III of Denmark-Norway saw an opportunity to recover the territories it lost in 1645 and attacked Sweden. The outbreak of war with Denmark provided Charles Gustav with an excuse to withdraw from the Polish campaign and move against Denmark.
