The Story Of King Adolf Frederick And How He Ate Himself To Death
VIDEOThere are several reasons to fondly remember the Swedish king Adolf Frederick’s reign from 1751 to 1771.
His reign was part of the Age of Liberty, during which civil rights of the Swedish people increased and the country witnessed an extended period of peace. In 1766, his reign also saw the Swedish parliament pass the world’s first legislation supporting freedom of the press and freedom of information.
But his reign is perhaps best remembered for the way it ended: with the king eating himself to death.
The king had an unusually large appetite and may have been used to overeating. After washing the meal down with champagne, he decided to have semlas for dessert.
