Kings of Denmark
from Gorm the Old to the present Queen Margrethe II

.
Denmark is a small country in northern Europe. Queen Margrethe II ascended to the throne of Denmark in 1972. The unbroken line of Danish monarchs in her family, stretching back over a thousand years to Viking times, makes Denmark politically the oldest nation in the world today. Its flag, the "Danebrog", is also the oldest national flag.
