Years: 1429 - 1429
King Eric's introduction in 1429 of the Sound Dues (Øresundtolden), which will last until 1857, is perhaps his most far-ranging act.
He secures by this act a large stable income for his kingdom that will make it relatively rich and which will make the town of Elsinore flourish.
It shows his interest in Danish trade and naval power, but also permanently challenges the other Baltic powers, especially the Hanseatic cities against which he also fights.
