Eroberung Kopenhagens durch die Hanse 1368 II

Conquest of Copenhagen by the Hanseatic League in 1368

Second Danish-Hanseatic War was a war between Denmark and the Hanseatic League from August 1361 to May 1370. The Hanseatic League, supported by Sweden, Mecklenburg, Holstein and some Danish nobles, attacked Valdemar IV. In 1368, the Hanseatic League invaded Copenhagen and finally forced Denmark to sign Treaty of Stralsund.[1]
