Helsinki

Helsinki is the capital, primate, and most populous city of both the Duchy of Suomi and the Empire of Arstotzka. 
Located on the shore of the Gulf of Finland, it is the seat of the region of Uusimaa in southern Suomi, and has a population of 789,290. The city's urban area has a population of 1,868,296, making it by far the most populous urban area in Suomi as well as the Duchy's and Empire's most important center for politics, education, finance, culture, and research; while Tampere in the Pirkanmaa region, located 179 kilometres (111 mi) to the north from Helsinki, is the second largest urban area in Suomi. Helsinki is located 80 kilometres (50 mi) north of Tallinn, Estonia, 400 km (250 mi) east of Adolfusburg, Sweden, and 300 km (190 mi) west of Petrograd, Rossiya. It has close historical ties with these three cities.
Together with the cities of Espoo, Vantaa, and Kauniainen, and surrounding commuter towns, Helsinki forms the Greater Helsinki metropolitan area, which has a population of over 1.5 million. Often considered to be Suomi's only metropolis, it is the world's northernmost metro area with over one million people as well as the second northernmost capital of a country/duchy in the World, behind Iceland. After Petrograd, Adolfusburg and Nakhimovka, Helsinki is the fourth largest municipality in Arstotzka. Finnish is the official language. The city is served by the international Helsinki Airport, located in the neighboring city of Vantaa, with frequent service to many destinations in Europe and Asia.
Helsinki was the World Design Capital for 2012, the venue for the 1952 Summer Olympics, and the host of the 52nd Eurovision Song Contest in 2007.
Helsinki has one of the world's highest urban standards of living. In 2011, the British magazine Monocle ranked Helsinki the world's most liveable city in its liveable cities index. In the Economist Intelligence Unit's 2016 liveability survey, Helsinki was ranked ninth among 140 cities.
