Fredericia

Fredericia is a city in eastern Jutland, Denmark, founded in 1650 by Frederik III, after whom it was named.

The city is one of Denmark's largest traffic hubs.

Population 48,533.

The city is home to the army's telegraph regiment which is located at Ryes Kaserne and Bülows Kaserne. Fredericia was almost selected as the danish capital, due to the central placing and large port, but in the end Copenhagen became the focus of attention due to its massive population.
