1531 - 1533 Third DALECARLIAN Rebellion of Sweden (1 Jan 1531 Jahr – 31 Dez 1533 Jahr)

Beschreibung:

The Dalecarlian rebellions (Swedish: Dalupproren) were a series of Swedish rebellions which took place in Dalarna in Sweden.

The rebellions were conducted by the peasantry of Dalarna against the Swedish monarch, King Gustav Vasa.

Mutual reasons for all three rebellions were loss of support of Gustav I among the Dalecarlian peasantry because of the economic crisis, the increased royal power, and the unpopular Swedish Reformation.

In 1531, the Reduction of Gustav I of Sweden of the ongoing Swedish Reformation and a new tax, where every parish were obliged to contribute with one of their church bells, resulted in a rebellion where rebels from several of the parishes killed and abused the kings bell collectors.

In May, they offered to pay the worth of the bells in money, which the king accepted. At that point, Christian II of Denmark was attempting to regain his throne, and the king was occupied elsewhere.

In January 1533, he was free to deal with the rebellion. He summoned the Dalecarlians to a meeting, where he met them with an army, threatened them, fined them, extradited the bell tax with force, and arrested several of the leaders, Måns Nilsson, Anders Persson, and Ingel Hansson, and took them to the capital, where they were executed in early 1534.
