Where Is The Baltic Sea
The Baltic Sea is a large body of water that is nearly surrounded by several countries of northern Europe-Denmark, Germany, Russia, Finland, and Sweden. The sea is 163,050 square miles in size, which is larger than the state of California. It is the shallowest of all the seas. At no point is it more than 180 feet deep. It has many sand banks and islands, and it is often swept by violent storms. All of this makes it very dangerous for ships. Despite this, the Baltic Sea is important to the trade and business of the countries around it. The Baltic Sea is divided into several parts. The northern part is called the Gulf of Bothnia and is between Sweden and Finland.
The eastern part includes the Gulf of Finland and the Gulf of Riga. The southern part has many shallow lagoons, called “haffs.” Two hundred and fifty rivers run into the Baltic, so it contains much less salt than the Atlantic Ocean. This makes the Baltic freeze more quickly, and ships cannot get through the ice in the northern parts during the winter and early spring. In 1809, a Russian army crossed the Gulf of Bothnia on the ice. The Baltic Sea is filled with salmon, herring, and trout, and many people living on its shores are fishermen or work in large fisheries. Along the coast of Germany, people gather amber (see the article on AMBER). Some of the most important Baltic ports are Copenhagen, Denmark; Helsinki, Finland; Stockholm, Sweden; and Kiel, Germany.
