- House_of_Vasa abstract "The House of Vasa (Swedish: Vasaätten, Polish: Wazowie) was an early modern royal house founded in 1523 in Sweden, ruling Sweden 1523–1654, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth 1587–1668 and the Tsardom of Russia 1610–1613 (titular until 1634). Its agnatic line became extinct in Poland with the death of King John II Casimir of Poland in 1672.The House of Vasa descended from a Swedish 14th century noble family, tracing agnatic kinship to Nils Kettilsson (Vasa) (died 1378), Vogt of the castle Three Crowns in Stockholm. Several members held high office during the 15th century. In 1523, after the abolishment of the Kalmar Union, Gustav Eriksson (Vasa) became King Gustav I of Sweden and the royal house was founded. His reign is sometimes referred to as the beginning of the modern state of Sweden, along with the foundation of the Protestant Church of Sweden during the Protestant reformation as a result of the King's break with the Roman Catholic Church, usurping its property on Swedish soil. Yet, his son, King John III of Sweden, married a Catholic Polish Queen Catherine Jagiellon, eventually spreading the House of Vasa to Poland.Catholic King Sigismund III Vasa of the Polish–Swedish union was attacked by his brother in the War against Sigismund and was dethroned in 1599, replaced by the Protestant King Charles IX of Sweden. As a result, the dynasty was split into a Protest Swedish branch and a Catholic Polish one, rivaling royal titles in subsequent wars.The involvement of the famous Protestant General and King Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden in the Thirty Years' War gave rise to the saying that he was the incarnation of \"the Lion of the North\" (German: \"Der Löwe von Mitternacht\"). Yet, notably, his daughter and heiress Queen Christina of Sweden (1632–1654) abdicated from the Swedish throne in 1654 after converting to Roman Catholicism and emigrating to Rome.In Poland, John II Casimir of Poland abdicated from the throne in 1668. With his death, the royal House of Vasa became extinct in 1672.".
