The Hanseatic League was a powerful economic alliance of trading cities and merchant guilds in Northern Europe that emerged in the late 12th century and dominated commercial activity in the region until the 17th century. Its member cities included Stockholm, Tallinn, Bergen, Riga, and Lübeck, as well as others across the North Sea and Baltic Sea coasts.
