Swede Queen

Get ready for a monarch who really stands out in history as a person who forged her own path, regardless of the social expectations of the time. Today, we introduce CHRISTINA, Queen of Sweden! But let’s start at the very beginning, in Sweden of 1626 when Christina was born a healthy child. So healthy and, apparently, hairy, that she was initially thought to be a boy until the attending court ladies took a closer look at the new baby. This didn’t bother the king one bit though, he was pretty excited about his hairy little daughter and made sure she got an education fitting a king, and a king specifically since the training for queens was quite different in those days. Find the name of this forward thinking father and search for his first name in the AADL catalog to find your first code.

I'm also stuck; AADL catalog searches for possible regents (one that starts with 'G' and one that starts 'O'), noted in the wikipedia article result in a few catalog items, but I'm not finding a code in any of them. I've tried most other surnames. I'm sure it's easier than I'm making it out to be...
