Leib-Drabants of Charles XII - The Great Northern War

Swedish soldiers (18th century) (Early Modern Period 1500-1750)


Cavalry was a very important part of the Swedish army in the early 18th century, and made up a large proportion of the total. The Drabants, a kind of royal lifeguard, were formed into a special corps in 1700. Each level of seniority in the unit equated to a higher level in the rest of the army, and the king himself was their captain. Their blue uniforms were richly decorated with gold lace (silver in the case of the trumpeter), and their number was limited to just 200, although in practice they were far fewer.
