Kingdom 1: Olof Skötkonung

For some reason the first upload of this episode didn't work on the Flatpack feed, so here's the re-release! It is time to judge our first ever ruler, the first king of Sweden, Olof Skötkonung! We cover the life of this interesting character who straddled eras, as we enter a country in the dying days of the Viking period. Will Olof do enough to win the coveted Kingdöm prize of The Three Crowns, or is his life story a bit of a bore? Here are some maps which might handy too: Be sure to search for Kingdom: Swedish Rulers and follow the feed there to get all the episodes going forward.
