Helsinki Finland Formation of History
Formation of History
The place where the modern Helsinki is, in the middle Ages was inhabited by Swedes and Finns. Founded in 1550 by Swedish King Gustav I as a city - commercial rival Tallinn - Helsinki had hard times in the early years of its existence. Incipient settlement was threatened with the poverty, war and disease. Helsinki for a long time remained insignificant coastal city and other prosperous areas dominated over it. In 1812 Helsinki became the capital of the state, and from this period began the rapid development of the city.
