  • The Stockholm Pact, also known as the Baltic Sea Pact, or, unofficially, the Baltic Alliance was an agreement signed by Prussia and Sweden in 1819 to form a Mutual Protection Pact, due to the growth of Napoleonic France and the increasing belligerency of the Russian Empire. The United Kingdom joined in 1822. While not officially called an "alliance" by the three nations that were party to the agreement, Russia and France took it to be so, so tread carefully, not wishing to bring war back to Europe after the massive destruction of the First Great European War. However, the anger of Great Britain and Prussia lead the two to agree to support each other in an attempt to wrestle land from France: Prussia wish ed to expand into the Confederation of the Rhine , while at the same time destroying Poland due to the Eastern European nations alliance with France through the Marseilles Pact, while Great Britain wished to halt France's colonial ambitions in Africa.
