Christiania was renamed Oslo in 1925 to reflect its historical roots, as the original name of the city was Oslo before it was known as Christiania in the 17th century. The change aimed to restore the city's identity and heritage, aligning with a broader trend in Norway of embracing historical names. This renaming also symbolized a shift towards modernity and national pride following Norway's independence from Sweden in 1905.
