List of battles of the Great Northern War

This is a list of battles of the Great Northern War (1700–1721).

By 1700, the Swedish Empire was the dominant power in Northern Europe, controlling territory from Norway to modern-day St Petersburg. But in this war, it was attacked from all sides by several countries: Denmark–Norway to the west, the Tsardom of Russia in the east, the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth to the southeast, and the Electorate of Saxony to the south. The countries formed a coalition against Sweden and surprise attacked from all sides. By 1721, Sweden had been forced to sign a very disadvantageous peace,^[1] giving up Swedish Livonia and losing all their power.^[2][3][4]

This list shows the list of the military engagements using the Julian calendar, Swedish calendar and the Gregorian calendar.
