You know... hints don't really help my very limited knowledge of Swedish/Finnish history. I have a friend at Tech, who is really into Swedish history though.

Let´s recap.

The year is 1809.

The king in question is named Gustav and is son of Gustav III.

That would be cheating, now wouldn't it?

But most civil wars in those days were caused by some sort of battle over who would succeed the king. Hmm... Henry didn't happen to die childless, did he?

Victor, Yes, as a matter of fact he did... The ship (The White ship) went under in bad weather in 1120 taking all the successors with them.

Ah excellent. Now this question is meant not to be discovered with google (or I don't know I haven't tried yet).

As the Roman empire in the west fell, its control over several provinces passed back into the hands of those who held them before the Romans came in; however, later barbarians would overwhelm all of these. What was the leader or last region to be controlled by the original pre-Roman peoples who lived there and in what century was it lost to barbarians or the descendents thereof?

"The ship (The White ship) went under in bad weather in 1120 taking all the successors with them."

Just to clarify, I think it only took Henry's son. His daughter Mathilda was still alive, and she and her son fought King Stephen, Henry's nephew, for many years.
