Del Prado SNC091 Danish Light Dragoon, Judske Regiment, 1813
The involvement of Denmark/Norway and Sweden/Finland in the Napoleonic Wars was due to the dependence of both these countries on trade and reasonable day-to-day relations with the rest of Europe. Both claimed neutrality and traded with both French- and English-dominated nations. In the case of Denmark, this position was backed up by the creation of a strong navy. It was inevitable that both sides should attempt to limit this neutrality, and in 1801 British insistence on searching Danish vessels, resisted by Danish gunfire, led to the first attack on Copenhagen. In the action of 2 April, the Danish fleet was defeated. For six years thereafter the Scandinavian nations prospered by their foreign trade, particularly in timber and iron.
