Karl Johan, originally Charles XIV John of Sweden, was a prominent Scandinavian monarch who reigned over Sweden and Norway in the early 19th century. He is best known for his role in the establishment of the Union between Sweden and Norway and for his efforts to modernize both kingdoms. His reign saw significant political and social changes, including a shift from absolute monarchy towards a constitutional framework. Karl Johan laid the foundation stone for the Royal Palace in Oslo, which has become a symbol of the monarchy's relationship with the Norwegian people.
