Gustave III was the Swedish model of the enlightened despot, a great admirer of France. He fought against Denmark and Russia. Freemason, he developed the Order in Sweden, but clashed with the conservative party of "caps" and was assassinated by one of its officers on the eve of declaring war on revolutionary France. Charles XIII (1748-1818), brother of Gustave III, had already been regent between 1792 and 1796 and succeeded his nephew in 1809.
