As someone who has actually visited Denmark and fallen in love with the country, I was completely blown away by how much I still didn't know! From ancient Viking kings to world-famous inventions, Denmark never stops surprising me. This is a Danish reaction you do NOT want to miss! --- 🎯 *What I Reacted To* In this American reaction to Denmark facts, I watched a video covering 14 incredible things most people don't know about Denmark. And let me tell you — my mind was blown multiple times. The history, the culture, the inventions… Denmark is absolutely incredible! --- 🏰 *The History Will Shock You* Denmark is the **oldest kingdom in Europe**, traceable back to 660 BCE Queen Margrethe II can trace her lineage all the way back to *900 AD and Viking King Gorm the Old* — as an American, I can't even imagine that! The Danish flag, the *Dannebrog**, is the oldest national flag in the world, dating back to **1219* — and the story of how it came to be is absolutely insane Every Danish king since the 1500s has been named either *Christian or Frederick* --- 🌊 *Denmark and the Sea* No point in Denmark is farther than *32 miles from the sea* — 443 islands, people! Danes go to the beach *year round**, including **winter bathing* — which, as an American, I find absolutely crazy Denmark is the *largest oil producer in the EU**, AND produces over 40% of its energy from **North Sea wind farms* Denmark has even staked a claim to the **North Pole**! --- 🎢 *Fun Facts That Blew My Mind* Denmark is home to *two of the world's three oldest amusement parks* — Bakken (1583) and Tivoli Gardens (1843). I've actually been to Tivoli and it was AMAZING! *Danish pastries* don't actually come from Denmark — they come from **Austria**! *LEGO* was founded in Denmark in 1932, and "Lego" means *"play well"* in Danish LEGO is also the world's *largest manufacturer of rubber tires* — WHAT?! Denmark is the *fourth flattest country on Earth* The drinking age in Denmark is *16* — as an American where it's 21, I could not believe that! --- 🎭 *Famous Danes You Didn't Know Were Danish* *Jaime Lannister AND Euron Greyjoy* from Game of Thrones are both played by Danish actors! *Hans Christian Andersen* — the man behind The Little Mermaid AND the story that inspired Frozen! *Niels Bohr* — one of the most important scientists in history Philosopher *Søren Kierkegaard* --- 🚲 *Copenhagen Is Unlike Any City in the World* Nearly *half of all trips* to school or work in Copenhagen are made by bike Dedicated bike lanes, bike traffic lights, and even *bike bridges over the harbor* The iconic *Christiania bike* — a cargo tricycle invented right in Copenhagen --- 💬 *My Questions for My Danish Friends:* Can YOU trace your family history back hundreds of years? Do you go winter bathing? 🥶 Is Copenhagen actually carbon neutral now --- 📺 *About Aaron Arnold Reacts: Europe* Hi, I'm Aaron!
