This post is consecrated to the Westerosi rulers that remind me the most of Gustavus Adolphus: young dashing warrior kings with hopeful ambitions and enough charm, but who died untimely and violent deaths.
Let's see how many parallels more can be drawn between their lives and that of the Vasa, shall we?

- At an early age, distinguished himself on the battlefield, reputed as invincible
- Had got charm, which made his men ready to die for his sake
