Best Answer

Despite Sweden and Britain being in war against each other (Anglo-Sweden War) in 1810-1812, no military action was actually taken.

Sweden only declared war on Britain because it was defeated by its enemies and forced to sign a treaty by them - part of the treaty said that Sweden must declare war on Britain. Despite the fact that Sweden and Britain are allies.

Sweden and Britain just acted as they normally would. Sweden even allowed Britain to dock military ships in Hanö. Neither side invaded or attacked the other. It's often referred to as "the Cold War of the 1800's".

When the Swedish crown prince, Charles August, died, Jean-Baptiste Bernadotte became the crown prince of Sweden. When France attacked Sweden (breaking the treaty Sweden was forced to sign), Jean cancelled the treaty and re-established an alliance with Britain, saying the declaration against them was wrong and pointless.
