The Sea Surrounding Denmark

Denmark is a small country geographically surrounded by water, and most of its ancient history is therefore closely related to the sea.

The location – just in-between the Baltic Sea to the east, and the North Sea to the west; the Scandinavian peninsular to the northeast and north, and just connected by a short border to Germany to the south – has always implied a strategic major naval importance.

The faith of the Kingdom of Denmark has for centuries mostly been depending of the strength of the Danish naval forces, and the history of the navy reflects this situation.

The waters surrounding the country have for decades supplied food to the nation, as well.

The waters, however, have always acted as both the first and last line of defense.

The sovereignty of the nation has several times during the history been dependent upon the strength of the navy – sometimes successfully, sometimes not.
