Request to edit and change the category at: Template:Country data Denmark from 'Category:Country data templates of subdivisions of Denmark' to 'Category:Country data templates of subdivisions of the Kingdom of Denmark'. There is a Distinction between Denmark and the Kingdom of Denmark. Outside the Kingdom of Denmark, "Denmark" is used as the English short-form name to describe the Kingdom of Denmark. The Danish name that is commonly used is Danmark, which is a singular form, whereas both the official Danish name Kongeriget Danmark and the English "(Kingdom of) Denmark" is a plural form. In Danish practice, however, "Kingdom of Denmark" is shortened to "Kingdom" and not to "Denmark", as the latter name could be confused with the Kingdom's principal constituent country rather than with the Kingdom. Apart from the fact that referring to the Kingdom of Denmark as "Denmark" can be confusing, the term "Kingdom" is also used to prevent any feelings of ill will that could be associated with the use of the term "Denmark." The use of the term "Denmark" for the Kingdom as a whole might imply that the Faroe Islands and Greenland are not equal to the Kingdom's country in mainland Europe and that the three island countries have no say in affairs pertaining to the Kingdom but are instead subordinate to the European country. The Kingdom of Denmark is the sovereign state consisting of the three parts of the kingdom— Denmark, Faroe Islands and Greenland—are constituent countries (riget or commonly known as the 'Unity of the Realm' (Danish: rigsfællesskabet) and are equal as in the kingdom.

Please add:

Since neither of these flags are quadrilateral but they have borders at the moment which makes no sense considering their shape. – Illegitimate Barrister (talk • contribs), 08:22, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
Link to Danish Realm?
[edit source]Can we provide a link to Danish Realm for e.g. organizations where the entire kingdom is a member, rather than just Denmark? — kwami (talk) 05:32, 13 August 2022 (UTC)

Could we add some sort of note at the top of these templates?
[edit source]It is very easy to confuse Denmark with the Kingdom of Denmark (or Danish Realm) which are not quite the same thing, the Kingdom of Denmark is a sovereign state while Denmark is simply a constituent part of that sovereign state similar to how Scotland is a constituent part of the United Kingdom. However do the similarities in name cause this template to often be used in a context where a link to the Kingdom of Denmark would be more appropriate so I suggest that we add some sort of disclaimer to the top of this template explaining the difference between the two and a explanation of how to use Country data Kingdom of Denmark while still having the text read simply "Denmark"
Note: I have also added a similar comment to the talk page for Country data Netherlands as the two nations have a similar situation PharaohCrab speak𓀁 works𓀨 15:20, 15 June 2026 (UTC)
