--- 1387-1396 ( Interregnum : the rule of Margaret "I" )

Notes:
1. In 1387, after the death of Olav II, King of Denmark and Norway, at the age of 17, his mother Margaret (+1412), who had served as regent in both kingdoms for him, now became the ruler.
Margaret was a daughter of Valdemar IV, King of Denmark, and the widow of Haakon VI, King of Norway and Sweden.
2. Margaret consolidated her position in Norway and Denmark and, then joined forces with the Swedish nobles, who had risen against the unpopular King Albert of Sweden. By the Treaty of Dalaborg of 1388, the Swedish nobles proclaimed Margaret Regent of Sweden.
Defeating Albert in 1389, Margaret took him captive and released him only after the conclusion of peace six years later. His supporters, who had allied themselves with pirate bands in the Baltic Sea, did not surrender Stockholm until 1398.

--- 1396-1438 ( Eric VII of Pomerania )

Notes:
1. Margaret, Regent of Denmark (from 1375), of Norway (from 1380), and of Sweden (from 1389), by diplomacy and war, pursued dynastic policies that led to the Kalmar Union (1397), which united Denmark, Norway, and Sweden until 1523 and Denmark and Norway until 1814. In the absence of an heir, Margaret adopted her six-year-old nephew, Eric of Pomerania. Eric was proclaimed hereditary King of Norway in 1389 and was elected King of Denmark and Sweden in 1396. His coronation took place in 1397 in the southern Swedish town of Kalmar.
2. Despite Eric VII's coronation, Margaret remained Scandinavia's actual ruler until her death.
