Christina of Sweden served as Queen from 1632 to 1654 and later abdicated due to her conversion to Catholicism and refusal to marry. She was known for her intelligence and efforts to transform Stockholm into the “Athens of the North,” even establishing a university. Rising to power at a young age, she promoted peace during the Torstenson War. However, her lavish spending caused financial difficulties, ultimately leading to her abdication. In Rome, she supported Baroque artists and musicians, playing a significant role in the Counter-Reformation movement.
