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. In addition,
Denmark and Japan have both claim to be the oldest monarchy
in the world. Denmark is a part of the European Union. The
Kingdom of Denmark also encompasses two off-shore territories,
