Once we were brutal Vikings. Now we are one of the world's most peaceful societies. Welcome to Denmark.
In Denmark, people bicycle in all types of weather and at all times of day. Bicycles are used for pleasure, commuting, transport of goods, and family travel, and extensive networks of bike lanes and bike highways make it easy.
Denmark has some of the world's lowest income inequality. And when it comes to gender equality, women play a prominent role in business, while men get involved in childraising.
The Danish monarchy is the oldest continuing line in the world. Queen Margrethe II's heritage can be traced back more than a thousand years to a king believed to be born around year 900.
