Country of the week: The Kingdom of Denmark

Denmark, The country where mums could leave their babies in their prams on the sidewalks of Copenhagen and have a night out with the girls. That is how safe Denmark is. According to the Global Peace index, Denmark is the 4th safest country behind Ireland, New Zealand and Iceland.

The Kingdom of Denmark has a total landmass of 852,969 mi², well included Greenland but without Greenland, oh boy it is smaller than New Zealand. So without Greenland, mainland Denmark has a total landmass of… 16,639 mi²! I know, crazy right!

Did you know that there is an underwater bridge that allows you to cross the border from Copenhagen, Denmark to Malmo, Sweden! Here are some more facts. Denmark is 1 of 9 Nordic countries. Did you know that the Danish flag is the oldest flag in the world, created in 1370?

No more facts, now lets talk about the population. The population of Denmark is around 5.8 million residences. Including Greenland it would be somewhere around 5.85 million people, since there is only around 50,000 people living in Greenland.

 

That is all today, I hope you guys have learnt something. What did you learn today? Goodbye!

  1. Kia Ora Patrick!

    I loved your post this week and one thing is that I love like love how descriptive this piece of work is and you’ve asked me a question which is good but from a younger point of view do you think they could understand all these complicated words? so remember to think a little bit simpler but that’s all. And I also learnt about Denmark being the fourth safest country in the world. Well thank you Patrick.

    I’ll see ya later! -Evan
