Saint Eric of Sweden, King of Sweden, defended his country from Finnish invasions and codified Swedish law under Gospel principles. He used his throne to spread the Gospel through his kingdom and built the first large church in Sweden at Old Uppsala. Eric was murdered by conspiratorial, anti-Christian Swedish nobles in 1161 and is considered a martyr but never formally canonized,
