The
Kingdom of Denmark is the smallest and southernmost of
the Nordic countries. Located north of its only land
neighbour, Germany, southwest of Sweden, and south of
Norway, it is located at 56° N 10° E in northern
Europe. The national capital is Copenhagen. Denmark is
regarded as a Scandinavian country, although it is not
located on the Scandinavian Peninsula. The kingdom of
Denmark (Danmarks Rige) includes Denmark proper, the
Faroe Islands and Greenland.
Denmark
borders both the Baltic and the North Sea. The country
consists of a large peninsula, Jutland, which borders
northern Germany, plus a large number of islands, most
notably Zealand, Funen, Vendsyssel-Thy, Lolland and Bornholm
as well as hundreds of minor islands often referred to
as the Danish Archipelago. Denmark has historically controlled
the approach to the Baltic Sea, and these waters are
also known as the Danish straits.
Denmark
became a constitutional monarchy in 1849 after having
been an absolutist state since 1660 and has been a parliamentary
democracy since 1901. Having existed for more than 1000
years, the Danish monarchy is the second oldest in the
world, right after the Japanese. Denmark is a part of
the European Union. The Kingdom of Denmark also encompasses
two off-shore territories, Greenland and the Faroe Islands,
both of which enjoy wideranging home rule. Since the
mid-20th century, Danish society has been partly defined
by the "Scandinavian Model" of public services.
According to a study published by UNESCO and the CIA,
Denmark ranks as the "happiest" nation on earth.
