The Wasa was to be the largest and most powerful warship of its time. It was built during the 30 Years' War. King Gustav Adolf II wanted an additional cannon deck. And that's exactly what caused the ship to capsize. There was too much weight above the water. During the first trip it sank after 20 minutes. It fades into oblivion. It was rediscovered in the 1950s.
