More About Denmark
The Kingdom of Denmark (Danish: Kongeriget Danmark) is the smallest and southernmost of the Nordic countries. Located north of Germany (its only land neighbour), southwest of Sweden, and south of Norway, it lies at 56° N 10° E, or, more precisely, between 54°33′35″N, 8°4′22″E and 57°45′7″N, 15°11′55″E in Scandinavia in northern Europe, but not on the Scandinavian Peninsula.
Denmark borders the Baltic Sea and the North Sea, and consists of a peninsula named Jutland (Jylland) attached to Northern Germany, the islands of Funen (Fyn), Zealand (Sjælland), Bornholm (Bornholm) and many smaller islands, often referred to as the Danish Archipelago.
Denmark is a constitutional monarchy and is part of the European Union. Greenland and the Faroe Islands are crown territories of Denmark, each with political home rule.
Perhaps the most famous Dane is actually an English mythical figure: Hamlet, the title character of William Shakespeare's famous play, which was set in the real castle of Kronborg in Helsingør, north of Copenhagen. Another widely known Dane is Hans Christian Andersen, in Denmark referred to as H. C. Andersen, a writer mostly famous for such fairy tales as The Emperor's New Clothes, The Little Mermaid, and The Ugly Duckling. Also Karen Blixen/Isak Dinesen and the Philosopher Søren Kierkegaard are well-known world wide.
The most popular sport in Denmark is football. The lengthy coastline also provides good opportunity for sailing and other water sports. The "Around Zealand Regatta" is a yacht race that begins in Helsingør and continues for 2-3 days. Due to the level terrain, another common sport is cycling, and of late Copenhagen has been nicknamed the "City of Cyclists" due to the frequent use of bicycles for transportation and the designated roadtracks for cyclists. Indoor sports such as badminton and handball are also popular because of the lengthy winters.
One of the most impressive bridge building projects in the world was completed 5 years ago - linking Denmark and Sweden via a 10-miles long tunnel/bridge connection for cars and rail traffic. This connection opened on 1st July 2000.
