List of Kings and Queens

Sometimes it can be hard to remember which King followed which Queen, and how long everyone reigned for. Below is a list of all the Kings and Queens we have met so far in our journey through Swedish history, and which episodes they appear in. We have included Erik Segersäll in this list as he received his own episode, despite many historians doubting his claim to be a true King of Sweden.
