Battle of Lützen 1632

the real story of the battle....

The Battle of Lützen was one of the most decisive battles of the Thirty Years' War.

The Protestant army achieved its main goal of the campaign - to rescue Saxony from the Imperial onslaught. A more long-lasting consequence of the battle was the death of the Swedish king Gustavus Adolphus, leader of the Protestant forces. Without him to unify the German Protestants, their war effort lost direction. The Catholic Habsburgs had time to recoup their losses and regain their balance, and the war continued until the Peace of Westphalia in 1648.

Nicely done. thank you!

King Gustavus Adolphus was one of my childhood heroes. Sad he died thus so young.

War is bad.

Tyranny is worse!

Please be patient with America, dear friends. We suffer under the rule of rich oligarch who abuse the ideals and traditions they use to gull and fool us into unjust policy and acts. Their actions mock our history. We awaken slowly, but we awaken. We will win our liberty again!

@tjallew Tack själv för slag märka. Den god önskan av du och mig den här lik du ger oss den styrka vi nöd till slagsmål den pressar om oligarki.

(Thank you for kind note. The good wishes of you and those like you give us the strength we need to fight the forces of the oligarchs. We need a Gustavus today!)

@religiofob Greetings. I am pleased to be writing you. We share many values.

Tolerance assumes a rule of law. I, too, object to law-breaking, illegal immigrants. I object to mob-violence and crimes against people and property.

Wahabi Islam (The Saudi Kingdom, Pakistan, others) is intolerant of all other religions. Live and let live I say about others faiths, but not about them. As they would destroy our culture, I would destroy theirs. I fell the same about Iran, but their youth are not so bad.

@BBGSUSAMEDIA1

Very nice to met you! :) I was sure you're Swedish... :) I have 2 questions:

1) What the ''intolerance'' is? If I object to immigration from3rd World am I intolerant? Who's a tolerant person? Someone who like black mob on the streets or rape 10 yr girls?

2) About ''socialism'', I thought of its politically correct ''way of thinking'' not real social achievements. Greetings!

PS. My english isn't very good so pardon my non-elegant style. :)

@religiofob I believe the comment to which you refer about Englund means that for the first time in 100 years Sweden can claim an author of global stature who writes in their native language. Sweden is a constitutional monarchy with a higher than average measure of socialism. (Oddly enough, the first socialist reforms were instituted by kings, not democracies). Many elements of socialism no one objects to: public schools, roads, electrical delivery systems, airports... more. None self supported.

@religiofob Greetings. I am William Moran of Schenectady New York. (bbgs.usa.media1@gmail.com). We could perhaps better communicate over a different medium, and I invite you to write me. I have many screen-pals around the planet. I enjoy communicating with them all (although the Muslims don't stay long).

I express an American Idealism and it is always naive. I strive to win back the nation into which i was born. I strive to protect our world from those who would destroy it by with intolerance.

Part 2.

PS. Gustavus Adolphus II was a great king! I interested in history, I read Peter Englund's books and I was wonder one sentence of polish pre-word: ''Peter Englund returned Swedish history to Swedish peoples''. Really, the history is complete not important in Sweden? Are the Swedish the NATION yet? It is say you are ''a model socialist society''. A true socialist can't love her/his homeland... :)

Part 1.

Dear Friend, it's a very naive idealism. There never will be a total equality and never was. The peoples are more rich or more poor because the ones are most creative and intelligent than others. But there never was such a wealth, liberty and humanitarity! In my opinion - too much: decadence, paranoic tolerance and vanishing of all values are the result. When muslims will be rule in Sweden (soon) you will long for bad America and its ''tyranny''.

[BBGSUSAMEDIA1]

@religiofob Wahabi Islam hates America because of our tolerance and because every street screams sin to their strange sensibilities.

The American State may be powerful, but the people have been made poor by the tyranny of the rich oligarchs: the 1% who hold 90% of our wealth. They now act to steal our democracy by passing laws to restrict the freedom of the vote. They fan the embers of racism to flame again.Hail to Poland! Without Jan (III) Sobieski Europe might be Muslim today! Honor to him!

@BBGSUSAMEDIA1

Realities of 30 yr War have nothing in common with modern USA and its politics. I hope bad relations between catholics and protestants are the past.

Islam is racist but we shouldn't criticise islam because it's a racism... Eeeeh....

We shouldn't be proud of pur european heritage because it's a racism... Eeeeh...

America is ''big satan'' because it's rich and powerful... Eeeh...

Maybe I didn't understand your way of thinking. Greetings from Poland!

[BBGSUSAMEDIA1]

@religiofob After that we have the tyranny of the rich over the non-rich.

We have the tyranny of racism (Islam is racist)

These are complex matters. We must judge with deliberation and not be quick to accuse. but when the truth becomes apparent beyond doubt act accordingly.

America is still peopled by Europeans and has a culture descended from European cultures..

@religiofob Greetings! In the context of the Thirty Year War, I refer to the tyranny of the Roman Church as led by the Borgia Popes and their immediate successors. Nothing more.

I view Islam as very, very tyrannical. Worse than the Roman Church of the 1600s. I exhort my Representatives in Congress to keep up to fight against Wahabism and wonder why we do not target the Muslims of Arabia. I have a daughter. Islam is the greatest threat she faces.
