For Sweden Lvl 4 (Royal Backing), what is the timing of the Invader Card discard? How does it combine with other Adversaries which stack the Invader Deck?

Royal Backing rephrased for less ambiguity: "At the end of Setup (after resolving the initial Explore Card), Accelerate the Invader Deck. (Discard the topmost card of the lowest Invader Stage remaining in the deck.) On each board, add 1 Town to the land with fewest Invaders that matches the discarded card."
The fact that it's Accelerating the deck instead of discarding off the top is only relevant when combining Adversaries and the top Invader Card (post-Explore) is a later Invader Stage moved upwards by Adversary instructions. (Eg: Brandenburg-Prussia 5, where it will be a Stage III card, but there are still Stage II cards left in the deck.)
