[PAR] [TLE] Election of Christian III [SEP] The election of Christian III as king of Denmark and Norway on 4 July 1534 was a landmark event for all of Denmark and Norway.  It took place in the church in the town of Rye, eastern Jutland, where the Jutlandic nobility elected Prince Christian, son of King Frederick I and Duke of Schleswig and Holsten, as king.  This brought about the Count's Feud ("Grevens Fejde") and later also led to the implementation of the Protestant Reformation in Denmark and Norway. [PAR] [TLE] Frederick I of Denmark [SEP] Frederick I (7 October 1471 – 10 April 1533) was the King of Denmark and Norway.  His name is also spelled "Friedrich" in German, "Frederik" in Danish and Norwegian and "Fredrik" in Swedish.  He was the penultimate Roman Catholic monarch to reign over Denmark, when subsequent monarchs embraced Lutheranism after the Protestant Reformation.  As King of Norway, Frederick is most remarkable in never having visited the country and was never being crowned King of Norway.  Therefore he was styled "King of Denmark, the Vends and the Goths, elected King of Norway".
