kongenafnissebo Dude, you just tried to take away glory from Denmark, by cementing my point, handball is a Danish invention. If someone invents a spoon, every other version of a spoon is still a spoon... if this is not totally logical to you, then honestly I feel sorry for you... Instead of being a grumpy troll, just acknowledge that you miss read my comment and decided to be a troll before thinking it trough...it’s okay, we forgive you..
@@kongenafnissebo You probably think Carl Schelenz is the guy who created handball? 😂 Why don’t you go look it up yourself? Carl Schelenz was 16 years old in 1906, that’s the year The Dane Holger Nielsen published the rules for modern handball, which he had worked on for 8 years....
Carlsberg is also arguably the forfartherr of all European beer brewing, having send samples of the first stable yeast strains for free to all major European breweries.
If you wanna try what "Hygge" is about, try this. On a cold night, sit down on the couch with friends or family, turn off the lights and light some candlelights on your coffee table, wrap yourself in a blanket and sip a cup of tea, or whatever you fancy, maybe even have a few snacks nearby to munch on and maybe watch some TV. It's an amazing feeling.
@@isaakring2573 Hygge is not a specific thing, it is whatever you enjoy and relax too. It can be anything, with friends or by yourself. I bet you do "hygge" all the time with your own company. Like watching a series by yourself with some snacks :)
@@niviholm6058 well since it's so general i dont think there is any need to make that term into something special. I dont think that is something we do more than other countries idk
@@isaakring2573 As it is specified it is easier to welcome and who doesnt welcome hygge? .. We live for this shit, everyone should IMO. It is like carpe diem or "yolo"
i feel a nationalistic urge as a dane to point out that when the british attacked Copenhagen during the napolionic wars they *WERE* actually retreating from the far supirior danish fleet and only won because we didnt think they could break through so when ONE of their admirals saw a gap and used it to get on land we werent prepared and got massacered XD
But is that really how it happened? As far as i recall from history the Royal fleet chose to attack before the big navy that Russia had which were frozen until spring/summer time.
I think a better transcription is "Layeh got". Right? In one of my former videos I was trying to pronounce the vowels (unsuccessfully?) and had a laugh...
Fun fact: When Sweden played Denmark in the recent Handball World Cup final, on the scoreboard it said SWE - DEN, with the remaining letters from each country being DEN - MARK!
Nice list Even if I had a bit of trouble understanding some of those pronunciations of our words ;) Can't believe there wasn't a single point on this list mentioning Aqua or Barbie Girl. Also, Copenhagen houses THE oldest comic book store in the whole world, "Fantask" which is turning 50 years old next year. Last year, the place was on the edge of closing it's doors actually but a huge crowdfunding campaign raised almost $90,000 to help them stay afloat. Denmark was also THE first country to legalize the sale of pornographic content and we were also the first country to legalize gay marriage. And for many Europeans growing up in the '90s, you might remember a television show where you could call in to play a computer game called Hugo via the buttons on your phone. That character and the whole concept also originated from the Danish company "Silverrocks Studio" The Unity engine that is used by many developers to create video games these days also have its roots in Denmark. Also, in Denmark, we like to think that Santa Clause lives on Greenland and not the North Pole. Santa Clause danish name is "Julemanden" which directly translates to "The Christmas Man" We also celebrate Christmas on Dec 24th and usually opens up presents after the Christmas dinner. Most Danes prefer Duck or Pork with rinds while a few prefer ham. As long as the potatoes and gravy are there.
We were one of the first countries to legalize civil union* for gay people in 1997. Gay marriage was only made a mandatory service in all churches in 2012 :)
Depends on how you want to define Copenhagen. If you talk København Kommune and Frederiksberg Kommune then it is around 700K. If you talk greater Copenhagen then yes it is 1.3M. It is more incorrect he says we have around 5 million people we exceeded that a long time ago. In January we were just over 5.8 million in Denmark and over 5.9 when we include Greenland and the Faroe Islands.
16:24 and that one leader was Magrete, king Valdemar's daughter, who were th first female ruler and the one who made the union possible. This union fell apart when she died, because the next ruler, Christian, killed a bunch of Swedish politicians (or some other kind of important Swedish people, I can't remember 100%), which was why the Swedish decided to stop being part of the union, understandably so.
Queen Margrethe was not officially the ruler, but rather the regent in place of her son, Olaf, since her husband, the king of Norway had died. Christan II wasn't the next leader, the next leader was Erik af Pommern, (or of Pommerania, if you will), whom she adopted, because Olaf ended up dying. Erik was then followed by King Hans who was _then_ followed by Christian II. The union, as you say, did start to fall apart almost as soon as Margrethe died, though, because the Swedes didn't want to be a part of it. It had then been falling apart until the Stockholm Bloodbath, which Christian II thought would show those Swedes who was boss. Ftr, No one liked Erik much as a king, though he was wise enough to start the whole taxation of Øresund. He ended his days as a pirate working off of Gotland. Just, uh, that detail never fails to amuse me.
@@Sigart oh Yeah, that's right. It 's a long time since I had to memorize this. It's awesome that you were nice about it though, a lot of people would be condescending or out right mean if they had the chance to correct someone on the internet
@@welp3974 Ah, well, you're welcome. Likewise, a lot of people would be offended for being corrected, so.. I guess we can both pat ourselves on the back? XD
Hygge is that feeling when you are doing something really nice, eating something tasty, or having a nice time with family or friends, where you get like a tickle, or a warm fuzzy feeling deep down in the stomack. To do something "hyggeligt" is doing anything that gives you that fuzzy feeling...
And another fun fact is that Magrethe I was the first unofficial queen to rule Denmark when her husband died and her son was to young to take over the thrown...
And paid for education....... Yes we get paid from when we turn 18 to attend pretty much any education, but also it's free for us to attend that education.

Lovely to hear that we now are on the american map. But you forgot Danmarks oldest town Ribe. Ribe is about 1300 years old maybe older. we are still finding things in the underground. ;-)

You could add CAROLINE Wosniacki to you list ;-). Also as actors maybe Mads Mikkelsen and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau would be better to mention. And Danish pastry. Also the fact that the 2 countries who has been at war the most times with each other in the history of the world, is Denmark and Sweden.
@@TheLizzerazu Thanks. Sports has always been my trivia downfall but that was an embarrassing brain fart so I've changed it.

we don't just get our education for free we even get paid to get an education
i live in denmark but i learnt something new
POV . you are from denmark and know eery mistake he is making when trying to say words such as hygge
You kind of missed the point of “janteloven”
It’s a bit more aggressive then that, it’s more like
“You are not smarter then anyone”
“Don’t think your better then other”
“Don’t think you got it harder the others”
*101 Facts about Copenhagen
Lovely to hear that we now are on the american map.
But you forgot Danmarks oldest town Ribe. Ribe is about 1300 years old maybe older. we are still finding things in the underground. ;-)

rødgrød med fløde
Can you say it
Denmark Er ET godt land
Awesome vid as usual
Is it me or did you give up on Denmark after fact 94 and just talk about one hippie commune? It's not like you hadn't mentioned bacon, Victor Borge, speedway, Maersk, Aqua, the Øresund Bridge, Caroline Wosniacki, Scandi-dramas like The Killing, Bang Olufsen, salty liquorice, Tuborg beer, Viggo Mortensen, egg chairs, Faroe Islands, (Lurpak) butter cookies or Hamlet.
You could add CAROLINE Wosniacki to you list ;-). Also as actors maybe Mads Mikkelsen and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau would be better to mention. And Danish pastry. Also the fact that the 2 countries who has been at war the most times with each other in the history of the world, is Denmark and Sweden.
@@TheLizzerazu Thanks. Sports has always been my trivia downfall but that was an embarrassing brain fart so I've changed it. I left out Danish pastries and Great Danes because they call the former Viennabrot and the latter are German. I didn't know the fact although, looking it up, I see some debate about whether it is Denmark/Sweden or England/France.
Dont forget Lars Ulriks birth country
@@brittvestergaard6607 Oh I haven't forgotten him, nor have I forgotten Whigfield!

Netherlands: Am I non-existent?
Been to Christiania a Lot in my Young days
How is it there?
@@felixjohansson7841 it's a nice place where people live very free and are super friendly. It's good for tourists if you want to check out the culture and all the other interesting things within Christiania. Also if you feel like it, it's easy to buy weed there. But don't worry it's not like it's a stoner community, it's just that the opportunity is there and it's easy to find spots.
@@nonorden7100 Not anymore... It's crawling with cops
Finally! Thanks!!! 😁
he made a video about 🇩🇰
Hygge can allso we translated to Chilling
Moving to Denmark in about a week, a fun new chapter in my life. Thanks for the video!. :)
Dont get scared if you feel like we seem a bit distand and stand-of-ish. We may come off as unfriendly at first, but we just need a bit of time to warm up to new people. (Think hobbits)
Sam, how about you do 101 facts about the Netherlands in a future video?
We danes are VERY proud of our own country and it's culture. That's why you'll find us watching all this.
Who´s from Denmark?
Ps im from Denmark
