This antique map, created in 1665 and titled ‘Svecia, Dania, Et Norvegia…’, depicts the regions of Sweden, Denmark, and Norway. Finland is also shown on the map, located centrally between these three countries. In the early 17th century, Finland was a part of the Swedish Empire and was known as the Grand Duchy of Finland. The region was sparsely populated, with vast expanses of forests and lakes. The map also shows the nearby Aland Islands, which were part of Sweden at the time, and Russia to the east. While the cities of Stockholm, Helsinki, and Saint Petersburg are shown on the map, the focus is on the larger regions and their borders rather than specific landmarks or details of the cities.
