[“Reasons why His Royal Majesty of Great Britain and Elector of Braunschweig (Brunswick) and Lüneburg is obliged to enter the war against the Crown of Sweden. Year 1715.”] Great Britain (under King George I, born in Hanover, Germany) was allied with a coalition formed by the Russian Tsar Peter the Great; they declared war on Sweden in the summer of 1715. The “Great Northern War” lasted from 1700-1721 and was fought over land disputes between Denmark and Sweden, as well as a Jacobite uprising developing in Sweden.
