Years: 1367 - 1367
The Hanseatic League, again supported by Sweden, Mecklenburg, and Holstein, and now also joined by some dissident Danish nobles, attacks Denmark’s King Waldemar IV in 1367 while he is occupied battling domestic civil strife.
Waldemar places his privy council in charge and abruptly goes to Germany, where he succeeds in persuading Brunswick, Bradenburg, and Pomerania to attack the coalition forces from the rear.
