The Posten was founded in 1647 under the name "Postvesenet" by Henrik Morian. It was established as a private company, and the Dano-Norwegian king Christian IV gave his blessing to the founding of the company. Postvesenet was privately run until 1719, when the Dano-Norwegian state took over. From that point on, national postal service was a state monopoly. The local city postal services remained private, but in 1888 a new postal law was introduced, which expanded the monopoly to the entire country. // Events March 14 - Thirty Years War: Bavaria, Cologne, France and Sweden sign the Truce of Ulm. ...
