Originally a [[Vikings|Viking]] fishing village established in the 10th century in the vicinity of what is now [[Gammel Strand]], Copenhagen became the capital of Denmark in the early 15th century. From the 17th century, it became a regional centre of power with its institutions, defences, and armed forces. During the [[Renaissance]] the city was the de facto capital of the [[Kalmar Union]] and the seat of monarchy, governing most of the present day [[Nordic countries|Nordic]] region in a union with [[Sweden]] and [[Norway]] ruled by the Danish monarch serving as the head of state. The city flourished as the cultural and economic centre of [[Scandinavia]] under the union for over 120 years, from the 15th century until the early 16th century when Sweden left the union through a rebellion. After [[Great Northern War plague outbreak|a plague outbreak]] and fire in the 18th century, the city underwent redevelopment. This included construction of the prestigious district of [[Frederiksstaden]] and founding cultural institutions including the [[Royal Danish Theatre|Royal Theatre]] and the [[Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts|Royal Academy of Fine Arts]]. After disasters in the early 19th century when the British Royal Navy attacked the Dano-Norwegian fleet and bombarded the city, rebuilding during the [[Danish Golden Age]] brought a [[Neoclassical architecture|Neoclassical]] look to Copenhagen's architecture. After the [[Second World War]], the [[Finger Plan]] fostered the development of housing and businesses along the five urban railway routes emanating from the city centre.
