Russo-Swedish War of 1495–1497

The Russo-Swedish War of 1495–1497, known in Sweden as the Stures' Russian War and in Russia as the First Swedish War, was a border war between the Grand Principality of Moscow and the Kingdom of Sweden. Although the war was relatively short, and did not lead to any territorial changes, it has significance as the first war between Sweden and Moscow. Sweden earlier fought wars against the Novgorod Republic, before Novgorod was formally annexed to Moscow in 1478 – an event that led to the emergence of a unified Russian state.
