		Founded in 1550 as a rival to the Hanseatic city of Tallinn by the King Gustav_I_of_Sweden, Helsinki struggled in its infancy.

		Metro is an especially important method of transportation for commuters in the growing suburbs of Eastern Helsinki, and there are also plans to further expand the system to Espoo (see ''LÃ¤nsimetro''), but lack of agreement over financing has caused delays to the project.

	Provinces of Finland
		In 1995 the old system "Finland 12 provinces (lääni, län, 400+ municipalities" was replaced with a new one: "Finland 6 provinces (lääni, län), 20 regions/counties (maakunta, landskap), 400+ municipalities".
		The problem, if there is any, is that we use the same word (maakunta, landskap) for the old, large, historical provinces and for the new, small regions/counties.
		Editor's note: According to Finnish heraldists, the heraldry of the newer regions (maakunta/landskap) shall be treated along the lines of municipal heraldry (because they are legally municipal entities), so pages for them are linked from the page for Finnish municipal flags rather than the page for Finnish provincial flags.
