Note

He succeeded his grandfather, Haakon V, as king of Norway and was elected
king of Sweden by the Swedish nobles. His realms were administered by
regents from 1319 to 1332, a period in which the nobles acquired great
power. In 1355 he handed Norway over to his son, Haakon VI, for whom he had
acted as regent since 1343. In Sweden another son deposed Magnus in 1356.
Magnus, However, regained the crown in 1359, only to be deposed again in
1363 by the nobles after he had surrendered the southern section of Sweden
to Denmark. Haakon VI waged war in support of his father, but Magnus did
not again gain control of his realm. Magnus was imprisoned for some time
but escaped in 1371 to Norway, where he lived until his Death.
