Origins

Sortavala (Rus. Сортавала / Сердоболь, Fin. Sortavala, Swe. Sordavala), colloquially 'Sorty' is a town located in the centre of Russian Karelia's Ladoga Province, along Lake Ladoga and the River Yanisyoki (Fin. Jänisjoki). It is the largest settlement in Karelia by land and population and is the fourth oldest after Petrozavodsk (Soviet Union), Viipuri (Finland) and Vyborg (Russia).

Infustructure

Sortavala is defined by its spruce-stone embankments across her urban core, alongside her oxidized copper roofs which give the city a unique style.

Sortavala-Sosnovo Road

Built by doytnr with assistance from YeetThins, the Sorty-Sosnovo road links Central Sortavala to the former Kakisalmi, now claimed by Sosnovo. Started and Completed 22/Aug/26 the road provides an easy way to access the city from the Capital by land which would otherwise require a journey through the dense Taiga.

White Sea Canal

Connecting Lake Vygozero to the White Sea, constructed by doytnr and assisted with Steve12349 with filling, the canal provides water access from the White Sea to lake Onega, which can then access lake Ladoga by the Svir and the Gulf of Finland and later the Baltic Sea by the Neva. Started and Completed 20/Aug/26, it was first used to bring 2 polar bears from the White Sea to Sortavala the same day.
