Finland 500 Years on the Map of Europe

http://virtual.finland.fi/finfo/english/mapseng.html

This site takes the form of an online exhibition showing the way in which Finland has been represented in maps over the last 500 years. The web site has a total of thirty maps with explanatory text. The basis for this site was an exhibition commission by the Finnish Ministry for Foreign Affairs and put together by the Museum of Central Finland in Jyyäskylä in 1993. The material in the exhibition belongs to the private Fredrikson collection, which is one of the largest collections of maps in Finland. The online exhibition is divided into three main sections: Finland as a part of the Swedish Realm (1470-1806); Finland as a Grand Duchy in the Russian Empire (1814-1904); and Independent Finland (1925 onwards). The images of the maps available on the site are relatively small and it is, therefore, not possible to see much detail.
