Top 5 Biggest Cities of Ruotsaland
HelsingforsThe capital of Ruotsaland, it serves as the location of the functions of government; it is here where the Riksdag is located, where the Prime Minister live, in the Ministerial Office of the Republic of Ruotsaland, and where the President lives, in the Executive Palace of the Republic of Ruotsaland. The headquarters for the Army of Ruotsaland is also located in the city. As the capital, it also serves as a huge economic hub for international trade and innovations in the goods and services industry, with many corporations, such as Spisto and ÅKA, having their headquarters within the city. Government-led public services, such as the state-run locomotive service, RSB, finding its headquarters in the city as well. Most diplomatic missions done by Ruotsaland are located in Helsingfors.
Mariehamn
The second biggest city in Ruotsaland, Mariehamn, serves as both an important port for international trade and the primary intake station for immigration and customs for the entire nation. Culturally, it is considered one of the most important places for the development and proliferation of the Ruotsi language at home and abroad, as it is here where the Global Ruotsi Council (Världenruotsarådet) is located, and Mariehamn University is considered as one of the best schools in the world to study in the humanities, with a speciality in Ruotsi and the other Nordesian languages of the world.
Pohjanmaa
Pohjanmaa, the third biggest city, is a city that has a long and profound history in naval affairs. As such, the Navy of Ruotsaland has its largest fleet located in this city, as well as Pohjanmaa being an exceptionally great stopover point for cruise ships and yachts travelling on the continent or even internationally. The Pohjanmaa Forest, a blanket of green that contrasts with the colourful tones of this city, is a notable nature preserve which allows for most biologists to find some of the largest fauna within Ruotsaland with relative ease, especially the Northern Lion, the national animal.
Åbo
Similar in status to Mariehamn, Åbo, the fourth largest city, is considered one of the best places in the world to study Suomi, as Åbo University (or as the locals prefer to call it in their language, Turku) is located in a very powerful location to learn the language, as well as others like it in the Suomic groups, such as Eesti and even the Saami languages, the latter spoken in the frontier in the south and past the borders of any yet known nation in this interior; academic life within Åbo in studying these languages are second to none. Besides the academic, Åbo offers an active nightlife, being a notable global location for gambling and legal drug use for cannibis, which are a hit on the continent with young people from all over. However, despite the rosy picture, international incidents have happened that have encouraged police to crack down on the gaiety, with more than a few young foreign nationals from Kor studying at the university, or simply visiting, being found attempting to smuggle some of their drugs they bought in Åbo over the border to back home, among other things. As a result, both Ruotsi police and those from Kor have checkpoints on the border to examine people attempting passage into Kor with such contraband.
Björneskog
The fifth largest city, and the only one in the top 5 cities within Ruotsaland to have no coastal access, is Björneskog, located deep in the internal frontier, which has been a large reason to its astonishing growth over the past few decades. An area surrounded by natural forests for most of its history, Björneskog acquires a lot of its tourist traffic and revenue from its traditional way of life that the residents have learnt to commercialise to great success. From the forging for sale of custom kvinnörshugts, to guided forest expeditions to teach eager tourists the way people used to survive out in the unforgiving forests of inner Ruotsaland, Björneskog is for all intents and purposes ‘the de facto capital of the wilderness’ in the nation. Due to the wild persona of the city and its region, many coastal Ruotsa have summer homes within the vicinity, avoiding the brutal snowy environment of winter in the region, but enjoying the bounty of summer's beauty in the area.
