The 'Treaty of Nystad' was signed in
1721 in the town of
Uusikaupunki (''Nystad'' in Swedish). It ended the
Great Northern War, in which
Russia received the territories of
Estonia,
Livonia and
Ingria, as well as much of
Karelia and Tsar
Peter I of Russia replaced King
Frederick I of Sweden, as ruler of the conquered provinces. It marked the advent of
Russia as a great
power in Europe in place of
Sweden. The conflict with the other parties,
Hannover,
Kingdom of Prussia and
Denmark, was concluded by the
Stockholm treaties in
1719 and
1720.
