Denmark

Denmark is located in northern Europe and forms a kind of bridge between Scandinavia and the rest of Europe. Denmark has a long coastline, furrowed by a multitude of fjords and an immense number of islands. In the dawn of our era, it was populated by the Dag tribes it received its name from. Starting from the end of the 8th and virtually up to the 11th century, the Danish actively participated in Viking conquering campaigns. The unified Danish kingdom was formed in the early 10th century, and in the 11th, during the reign of king Canute, Denmark, Norway and England were temporarily united. In 1397, under Margaret the Danish, the Calmar Union was concluded. Under the reign of the Danish kings Denmark, Sweden (with Finland), Norway (with Island) were unified. In 1536, Lutheranism was introduced in the Danish state. By the 18th century, a territorial conflict had flared up between Sweden and Denmark. But this time military success was on the side of the Swedes, and in the Danish-Swedish war for reign on the Baltic Sea Denmark was defeated.
