Comments on: Six Centuries That Shaped Sweden: A Historical Map Journey https://vividmaps.com/sweden-history/ Maps that explain the World Sun, 08 Dec 2024 21:22:44 +0000 hourly 1 By: Magnus Johansson https://vividmaps.com/sweden-history/#comment-31641 Sun, 08 Dec 2024 21:22:44 +0000 https://vividmaps.com/?p=38780#comment-31641 I find these maps misleading, since large areas that were controlled by Sweden are left out. In 1660 for example the Swedish empire also encompassed what is today Finland and Estonia, as well as the eastern part of what is today Latvia, the area around today’s St. Petersburg in Russia, some small areas in northern Germany, the danish island of Bornholm and a part of central Norway around Trondheim.
