Haakon V of Norway was the monarch of Norway from 1299 until his death in 1319. As the younger son of King Magnus IV, he ascended to the throne following the death of his elder brother, Eric II. His rule is noted for centralizing royal authority and shifting administrative importance toward Oslo. Being the final male ruler of the House of Sverre, his death led to the succession of his grandson, Magnus Eriksson, through the lineage of his daughter Ingeborg.
