Usually, in school, the geological history of the Baltic Sea, the world's largest inland brackish sea, starts with the end of the ice age about 10-15 KA and tells about its different stages before it became the current sea about 4,000 years ago. However, the geological history of the Baltic Sea is much, much older and began when the Baltic plate subducted against the Laurentia (North American) plate around 400-450 Ma. At that time, the western Scandian orogeny and the central plate depression were born on the plate, which became important millions of years later. But from the Cambrian period to the Silurian period, there was a shallow sea in the middle of the Baltic plate, which began to be filled by erosion from sediments from the Scandian mountains. During the Cretaceous period, based on the discoveries in Kristianstad basin 86.3-71.3 Ma, there were dinosaurs such as theropods, leptoceratopsids, hypsilophodonts, hadrosaurids, iguanodontids and hesperornitheans who roamed the area as well as pterosaurs, mosasaurs, tylosaurs, plesiosaurs and crocodiles. In addition, there were two local meteor impacts, one on Dellen (~89 MA) and a later one on Lappajärvi (~78 MA) before the more famous K-Pg event. Around 40 MA, by the Eocene period, a wide plain had formed at the site of the more ancient depression. The plain was dominated by the amber-producing coniferous forest that covered it and through it flowed the "Baltic River System" now called as Eridanos. This Eridanos river ran along the previously mentioned depression to the Polish coast and later to the coast of the Netherlands because the river pushed its delta forward and the sea level also started to drop. Then began the Quaternary ice ages 475-370 KA (Elster, Saale and Weichselian, and between them the interglacials Holstein and Eem) and the glacier scooped out the old river bed several times. And between those ice ages it was filled with water like, for example, the Eemian Sea during the Eemian interglacial period about 127 KA. That would sum up the usually untold part of the geological history of the Baltic Sea.

@@DavidOfWhitehills I sure did expect it. It was a pretty big deal, as it was THE major Trading/Political Union in Europe before the EU, and the Baltic Sea was it's core.
0:48 I’d say Kattegat north of the Danish straits is considered to be a bay of the North Sea and not a part of Baltic Sea. The salinity is completely different from the salinity in the Baltic Sea.
Excellent. I'd have liked to learn a bit more about the salinity and resulting ecology, plus the bathymetry, but that's just me. I did learn loads and thank you.
Kattegat and the straits of Denmark, are not the Baltic sea. The International Hydrographic Organization defines the limits of the Baltic Sea as follows: Bordered by the coasts of Germany, Denmark, Poland, Sweden, Finland, Russia, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, it extends north-eastward of the following limits: In the Little Belt. A line joining Falshöft (54°47′N 9°57.5′E) and Vejsnæs Nakke (Ærø: 54°49′N 10°26′E). In the Great Belt. A line joining Gulstav (South extreme of Langeland Island) and Kappel Kirke (54°46′N 11°01′E) on Island of Lolland. In the Guldborg Sound. A line joining Flinthorne-Rev and Skjelby (54°38′N 11°53′E). In the Sound. A line joining Stevns Lighthouse (55°17′N 12°27′E) and Falsterbo Point (55°23′N 12°49′E).
Also, there is Volgo-Balt channel connecting Volga river and the Baltic. It connects Baltic with Caspian sea and with Volgo-Don channel - with Black sea
If you're interested there's a lot more to learn, especially when it comes to history. The whole region has had a lot of interaction over the years influencing each other a lot. Like how the Kalmar union was formed to counter the Hanseatic League for instance.
Yeah the geographic description helped with some different historical associations I've learned over the years, a very interesting piece of land so to speak ...thx. ✌️
Thank you for the info. I got to experience a bit if the Baltic by riding the ferry from Helsinki to Tallin. Then while in Lithunia on the spit we got so close to the Russian border one phone thought we were in Russia.
Noone in Denmark or Sweden would consider Kattegat and the straits of Denmark as parts of the Baltic sea. Salinitywise, Kattegat is also much closer to Skagerrak and the North Sea than to any part of the Baltic Sea.
Not saying the Stockholm Archipelago doesn't deserve a mention, it certainly does. But, how do you mean it's significantly larger? The Stockholm Archipelago has 34 000 islands, while the Finnish Archipelago has more than 50 000 islands. Also, the Finnish Archipelago is spread out on an obviously much larger surface area, so what definition would you apply to point out it's larger? Even in Swedish Wikipedia it says about Stockholms skärgård: "Den räknas som Sveriges största skärgård och den näst största i Östersjön, efter Skärgårdshavet i sydvästra Finland."
@@SaunaFinland That is very true. But the entire video did fail to menion annyhing abou sweden at almost every chance it had to mention it. He stopped talking about the coast right as he was done with finland and as stated above he failed to mention a single project in sweden like göta kanal. The fact that sweden has the most islands in the world is also an interesting fact that he somehow failed to mention, mentioning that would have done the same thing as mentioning finlands big archepelego but in a much better way.. The entire video seemed to have been made by a danish person that never really got the memo that our countries are no longer enemys but friends 😂
@@maxgronros6728 I agree. There was pitifully little about Sweden, which is a shame, because Sweden is an amazing country with beautiful seascapes. I think the video would have been much improved by a brief review about the history of the Baltic Sea in which Sweden plays a dominant role, the sea fortresses they built, the naval battles, and so on.
Turku was the capital of the Great Duchy of Finland for 3 years during the Russian era. Making it at the time the most important city in the area called Finland. The first Finnish senate, Bank of Finland and many institutes started in Turku in that 3 year time, later moved to Helsinki when the Tsar moved the capital there. During the Swedesh era Stocholm was the capital, Turku hold the position of the most important city in the Finnish area (btw the name Finland comes from the area where Turku is located, thats why the region is called Finland Proper). First Finnish school (Turun katedraalikoulu), first university (Royal Academy of Turku) and for example the only medieval cathedral in Finland gives you idea how powerful position Turku had compared to for example Helsinki. Much much later Helsinki stole most of these achievements for example the Academy was moved to Helsinki and became Helsinki university. So yes, technically Turku has only been the capital for 3 years, but for over 600 years it hold almost absolute power in the Finnish area, only the city of Viipuri being another big city in the area. @@Hoksaaja
Great video! A typo: Tallinn is written with two L's. Just an additional curiosity of the Baltic sea: East of Öland is the deepest point of the Baltic Sea, Landsort Deep, and it is 459 metres deep
Great video. I like that you cover nature and culture. I miss the Hanseatic league though! You talk about how important trade is on and around the Baltic sea, and you can't just not mention the Hanse.
One possible point of interest the was not noted is that the Baltic Sea has the lowest salinity of any portion of the worlds oceans and seas. This is partially due to the high rainfall and ergo high fresh water flow into the sea. But a larger formative cause is the very low tides around Copenhagen, which are are 30 cm or less, which creates minimal mixing of North sea and Baltic sea waters.. Another interesting fact is the the Baltic sea Salmon remain within the sea and their numbers did not have the huge declines caused by Greenland overfishing of all other Salmon races.
Yeah, in the north it is almost completely fresh water. It is almost like a huge lake. It then gets more and more saline the further towards Kattegat you go.
Geographical error in the video: What you called the southern quark is actually called the northern quark. The southern quark is located between the islands of Åland and Sweden. The northern quark is the narrow strait between Sweden and Finland that divides the Gulf of Bothnia into the Bothnian Sea and the Bay of Bothnia. Cheers 🍺
I heard of the Baltic sea, the Vikings had tactical advantage since it was easier to navigate hence could access the resources and to do trade with the Finnic, Baltic and Slavic lands
Forgot to mention about north Estonia coast, where it turns again from sandy beach coast in Latvia and south Estonia into high cliffs. Google "panga coastal cliff" very interesting. But the author jumped over to finnish coast very quickly and forgot to to some research.. Also I didnt here from author to mention that Baltic sea is the most unsolted sea in the world. Especially botnia
Hmm?.. I wonder, on what grounds do you consider the Baltic sea/Kattegatt to extend that far north of the northern tip of Denmark on the Swedish side?..🤔 Personally, I wouldn't consider Kattegat to reach further north than about Marstrand, & that would be pretty generous..🤔🧐
The Baltic region, located in Northern Europe, is bordered by the Baltic Sea and encompasses countries like Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, as well as parts of surrounding nations such as Sweden, Finland, and Poland. The geography map of this region highlights its unique coastline, dotted with thousands of islands, and its strategic importance as a historical trade route connecting Western Europe to Eastern Europe and Russia.
I was just home enjoying my day etc and the Baltic Sea came to my mind out of no where and I was thinking about nothing of the sort and so I read up on it etc and it’s location and history……interesting it is. Then this song came to my mind that use to come on the radio etc as I think about the world 🌎 foreign and domestic and the song goes…. “So comfortable we’re living in a bubble,bubble so comfortable we cannot see the trouble,trouble!”🎼🎵🎼🎶🎼🎶🎵🎼🎶🎼🎵🎼🎶🎼🎵🎼🎶🎼🎵🎵
great video and information, thank you. Btw i wonder the maps which are often shown at the last segments of your videos, 3D maps i mean, what is the source of those maps?
There is lore that the UK decided to build a battleship so large Germany would not match it because the Kiel Canal was too small. Germany simply widened or deepened the canal concurrently. For many years the U.S. Navy limited the size of ships to those that could transit the Panama Canal (108’ beam to fit through 110’ wide locks). Ultimately, the USN scrapped that limit to build the first (and current) super aircraft carriers. The current limit on size is dry docks and slipways.
It reminds me of the Great Lakes in the US. They are of course fresh water and the Baltic salt water but the proximity of the Baltic to so many countries is similiar to the Great Lakes proximity to several States and Canada.
Of course, they are closely related, and all formed by the glaciers of the Ice Age. Even the Canadian and Scandinavian Shields are very similar. It's logical that masses of people from the neighboring coasts settled down in the Great Lakes area, where they found a familiar looking landscape and could use all their agricultural knowledge.
Imagine being so stressed you seek help at BetterHelp, then they don’t answer when you call them, and they still take your money, and then you find out they aren’t licensed. This only hurts people. Find better sponsors next time.
Finnish geographers subdivide the Gulf of Bothnia (Pohjanlahti) into two further bits or seas: Selkämeri (the Southern bit) and Perämeri (the Northern bit). The point of division is the Merenkurkku 'sea neck' which is the narrowest stretch between Finland and Sweden.
The Kattegat and the Danish straits are NOT part of the Baltic Sea. You've likely confused the Baltic Sea with "the Baltic Sea Area" which is an area defined for environmental protection purposes.

3:35 that is NORTH kvarken. The south one is between Sweden and Åland.
Saw the comment about betterhelp. Gotta find another video then
Good content 💯
Hmm?.. I wonder, on what grounds do you consider the Baltic sea/Kattegatt to extend that far north of the northern tip of Denmark on the Swedish side?..🤔 Personally, I wouldn't consider Kattegat to reach further north than about Marstrand, & that would be pretty generous..🤔🧐
And Kattegat is not part of the Baltic sea
You are right and the video is wrong. It's not a matter of personal opinion.
great video
Kattegat is normally not considered as a part of the Baltic
I would call it a part of the North Sea.
cannot believe you showed grapes instead of amber...
Raisins instead of resin. Maybe they spelled it wrong when searching for an image.
Fascinating.
0:17 Mälaren is not part of the Baltic Sea
The Baltic region, located in Northern Europe, is bordered by the Baltic Sea and encompasses countries like Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, as well as parts of surrounding nations such as Sweden, Finland, and Poland. The geography map of this region highlights its unique coastline, dotted with thousands of islands, and its strategic importance as a historical trade route connecting Western Europe to Eastern Europe and Russia.
You forgot about Göta Kanal cuts through Sweden and enables a connection from the east coast of sweden to the west coast city of Gothenburg.
Name change to lake nato.
lmao :D
Bay near St. Petersburg is also renamed "Bay of Butthurt"

Kaliningrad should become independent and join the EU and NATO. Russia doesn't deserve it.
I was just home enjoying my day etc and the Baltic Sea came to my mind out of no where and I was thinking about nothing of the sort and so I read up on it etc and it’s location and history……interesting it is. Then this song came to my mind that use to come on the radio etc as I think about the world 🌎 foreign and domestic and the song goes….
“So comfortable we’re living in a bubble,bubble so comfortable we cannot see the trouble,trouble!”🎼🎵🎼🎶🎼🎶🎵🎼🎶🎼🎵🎼🎶🎼🎵🎼🎶🎼🎵🎵

great video and information, thank you. Btw i wonder the maps which are often shown at the last segments of your videos, 3D maps i mean, what is the source of those maps?
They are made by a map artist: instagram.com/arq.mosquera?igsh=cXlmbnlraXB6dWlj
12:32 Thanks, just cleared New York.
When will you cover Red sea, Adriatic sea and Agean sea?
Liked how you pronounced Rügen :)
Which I always associate with V2 even though I don't think they were on the island
This is a reasonable guess for the origin of the mythical Eridanos River, the North river rich in Amber.
There is lore that the UK decided to build a battleship so large Germany would not match it because the Kiel Canal was too small. Germany simply widened or deepened the canal concurrently.
For many years the U.S. Navy limited the size of ships to those that could transit the Panama Canal (108’ beam to fit through 110’ wide locks). Ultimately, the USN scrapped that limit to build the first (and current) super aircraft carriers. The current limit on size is dry docks and slipways.
The baltic sea starts east of Öresund, the Kattegatt is not a part of it.
It reminds me of the Great Lakes in the US. They are of course fresh water and the Baltic salt water but the proximity of the Baltic to so many countries is similiar to the Great Lakes proximity to several States and Canada.
Of course, they are closely related, and all formed by the glaciers of the Ice Age. Even the Canadian and Scandinavian Shields are very similar. It's logical that masses of people from the neighboring coasts settled down in the Great Lakes area, where they found a familiar looking landscape and could use all their agricultural knowledge.
The Baltic Sea (Baltiske Hav) is called Østersøen in danish and Kattegat is not a part of it.
Correct, Östersjön in Swedish and Ostsee in German.
Watching this from Pirita Beach on Tallinn Bay. Funny.
Baltic sea looks like a Priest holding a gun
Imagine being so stressed you seek help at BetterHelp, then they don’t answer when you call them, and they still take your money, and then you find out they aren’t licensed. This only hurts people. Find better sponsors next time.
which music did you use in the video?
Watching from Saint Petersburg😊 Nice content, keep it up!
Finnish geographers subdivide the Gulf of Bothnia (Pohjanlahti) into two further bits or seas: Selkämeri (the Southern bit) and Perämeri (the Northern bit). The point of division is the Merenkurkku 'sea neck' which is the narrowest stretch between Finland and Sweden.
Yea Sweden does aswell. Bothnian sea the southern one and bothnian gulf the northern one, same divide as you use norra kvarken.
Incorrect on this map: Skagerack, Kattegatt, Bälterna is NOT Baltic Sea. It's begins east of island Bornholm...
what is the music in the background?
The Kattegat and the Danish straits are NOT part of the Baltic Sea. You've likely confused the Baltic Sea with "the Baltic Sea Area" which is an area defined for environmental protection purposes.
Bug is my river❤
So you are from Galicia ay:D?
