Borders of Denmark
Overview of the borders of the Kingdom of Denmark / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Kingdom of Denmark has existed with its current territory since 1920, although the last territorial dispute with Canada was only settled on June 14, 2022. The only land border of Denmark (proper) is that with Germany, with a length of 68 km (42 mi). Greenland, an autonomous country of the Danish Realm, also shares a border with Canada splitting Hans Island in half in which the border is 1.28 km (0.795 miles) long. The border along the territorial waters (12 nmi (22 km; 14 mi) zone) with Sweden runs along the Øresund for a length of about 115 km (71 mi).
The exclusive economic zone (EEZ, 200 nmi (370 km; 230 mi) zone) of the Kingdom of Denmark (Greenland, Denmark (proper), Faroe Islands) borders those of Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, the United Kingdom, Sweden, Norway, Iceland and Canada. Maritime borders in the Baltic Sea were delineated with West Germany and Sweden in the 1980s and with Poland in 2018.[1]
