Helsinki, located on the southern coast, was considered more defensible and accessible, particularly in relation to Russia, which had recently taken control of Finland. The change also aimed to promote development in the eastern parts of the country and to strengthen ties with the Russian Empire, as Helsinki was closer to St. Petersburg.
