Bonus fact: Lars Thiesgaard, a well-known danish voice actor and voice director for many Danish dubbed Disney movies, stated that the higher ups at Disney prefered the Danish dubbed versions over the original American dubs back in the 1990's.

As a Dane, I gladly pay my taxes. We get it back by not having to pay for an ambulance or going to the hospital. At the age of 9, I was hospitalized for 2 months with a lot of rehabilitation afterwards. Didn't cost my family anything. We get pretty good infrastructure and do not pay for school, vocational or higher education. What I like about being a Dane is the trust we have in each other and the government. The latter is (unfortunately) under pressure - especially due to mis- and desinformation, the lack of critical thinking skills due to bombardments of speedy information on the internet and the rise of chaos pilots becoming leaders around the world. That could potentially destroy what we value. You can't take democracy for granted. It's fragile if we loose focus.

Although that might not be a 100% historical fact, the name, DANNEBROG, is found in 1380. You have only focused on 'official' changes to the format, not the origin of the flag.

My paternal Grandmother was swedish, and she lived in Elsinore (Denmark), so every time we spent a holiday with her at least a couple of Weeks twice a year, we often went on day trips to Helsingborg (Sweden) just across the strait (25 minuttes by ferry). I loved going to Sweden as a kid and a teen, and the landscapes in Sweden are more breathtaking than the Danish. We sometimes rented a cottage in Sweden for a week during summer time. I also liked that many decades before EU was even invented, Denmark, Sweden and Norway formed a union and we trusted each other to a degree that you didn't even had to bring your passport to cross the borders between those countries. It was also always possible for citizens from any of the three Scandinavian countries to settle down and live and/or work in one of the neighbouring countries and students of the Nordic univeristies could roam freely between Denmark, Sweden a d Norway having one of the best exchange student programs. I remember at some stage almost 40 percent of medicine students in Danish universitets were from Sweden. I've always felt a strong bond to my fellow Scandinavian brothers and sisters, and love the fact that we for the most part understand each others languages. It has always during World championships like football or handball been a natural thing to cheer for one of the other Scandinavian countries' national teams if, for example, our own dropped out of the quarter or semi-finals.

Well, different. You can't always tell if they like or dislike you, and they're very good at being sarcastic (which obviously doesn't help either) - Most Danes aren't into politics and the whole "social media" world, and will likely think low of you if you happen to be (provided that you tell them about it) - Most Danes aren't very religious despite having churches, they mostly just keep them around to preserve history. - Denmark is home to some of the world's finest restaurants, hereunder Noma, Alchemist, Geranium, Kadeau, and AOC.

Part of the smugness of Danes too, half the population lives in the Greater Copenhagen Region and they have little knowledge of where most of their food comes from --> Jylland.

If you choose to do trade school, it's 4.5 yr education and once you are done, you can build a BA ontop of it. And it's free for every citizen of the world as long as you get a sponser to vet and provide you with work.

Amazing video. As a dane I have to make a correction though. The island you call Zealand or Seeland in the video is called "Sjælland" (Soul land if you want to directly translate it). Also Funen is called Fyn in danish. This might help someone out if you're planning a trip here :) Also if you want to impress danish people. See if you can learn the pronounciation of our 3 extra letters (Æ, Ø and Å). Watching videos will help, as they don't sound like you'd expect.

Those are the international names, and it makes sense to use them in an English-language video. Your origin of Sjælland is not correct. Den Store Danske (Lex) "Navnet Sjælland optræder ca. 950 som Selund, af gammeldansk *sial 'fure' eller dyrebetegnelsen sæl og afledningsendelsen -und."

Im a proud dane!!

Things are changing.

im danish and i can confirm all of this

As a dane i can say when it comes to mountains we ain’t got nothing. We have a place called “Himmelbjerget” or skymountain and its just a big Hill, but its a fun place to hike

Hmm Wikipedia have just been corrected. The Danish flag was instituted in 1117 after the battle of Vilnius. Potentially as a reverse knights templar standard. Not my opinion. But act 2 of "Dane Law".

Bring it I live here❤🤲

Did you know that after the war in 1864, the danish king told the german kansler Bismarck that he could have the hole Denmark if he still could be king of Denmark ? Bismarck ignored him

im proud to be born in denmark and my name is in denmark

The DISNEY "castle" was inspired by NEUSCHWANSTEIN in GERMANY.

Not only that some ferry's also makes it free if you travel with a bike instead of a car!

Healthcare and education are NOT free. Danes pay one of the OECD´s largest tax-percentages, as high as over 50%

The only reason I despise Copenhagen (Twice as many bikes than cars-section) is basically because I have grown up in a small town and the nearest towns we have are nowhere near as packed as Copenhagen (Slagelse, Skælskør, Korsør) :-D

The cityfolk idiots in "Kongsby" don't realize how far spread apart things are in Jylland and Vendsyssel.

You can drink from the tap everywhere in Denmark, not only Copenhagen

Dannebrog(the Danish flag) have been in use for 800 years not just 400, nobody pays 50% tax on their income as in income tax , the average payed income tax is 34%, those who pay the highest rate only pay it on amounts over about 100.000 dollars earned, meaning they pay the lower rate on everything under 100.000 earned, that said with the vat and tax on a lot of things it does end up that high all included , it's just important to separate the two because a lot of people think the income tax is 50% and everything else is on top of that

It's not l off your facts That's true.. men godt forsøgt.

Water: It is in fact so clean that bottled water is a downgrade from our tap-water. A policy of no chemicals are allowed, no condemnations and constantly testing, makes our water so clean that it in fact creates problems for Danes when we travel outside Denmark. Even the slightest deviation from the absolute perfect can land us a bad stomach. :-)

Danish dyspepsia is more a reaction to flavorful ethnic food (compared to Danish blandness) than it is any amoebic tap water issues.

The danish flag actually comes from the knights hospitaller. The legend goes that in Tallin 1219 the flag fell down from the sky and turned the tide for the danish army in an attack on Estonia.

From a dane - Don't forget that healthcare and scooling might be free of cost, but we pay high taxes (I love it, but don't forget...).

when was this video made? its not recent

Dont drink. From the tap. Let the water rest some hours In the glass ok❤

We won't suffocate in pyroclastic flows anytime soon here in Denmark. And that's a good thing. Here you have the right spelling: Jylland, Sjælland, Fyn and Bornholm.

I'm a Dane. and 1. of all Denmark is the 2nd happiest country in the world Findland is 1st. and 2. I would not say we have mountains but hills since Møllehøj is a hill 3. Most of all Education is free not all but the ground school and gymnasium what we call it is free 4. Denmark is not in the top 10 of the most exporting food not even the top 20 it's not only in Cophenhagen that you can drink water from the tap you can do that in the whole of Denmark
