> General-Admiral Olof Rudolf Cederström was a Swedish Navy officer and politician. Born in Landskrona, Cederström joined the Swedish navy in 1779 and served in the Russo-Swedish War of 1788–1790. During the French Revolutionary Wars, he protected Swedish shipping in the North Sea but was sentenced to death after failing to prevent the British from detaining a convoy he was escorting. Following being pardoned and restored to his former position, Cederström was sent to the Mediterranean in 1801 and participated in the First Barbary War, overseeing 20 months of inconclusive operations before signing a peace treaty with the Regency of Tripoli.
