was given back to Denmark after a democratic decision in 1920- I am happy to say that we have modelled a functioning symbiosis of two nations which can act as beacon of hope to all Kosovos, Northern Irelands and other parts of this world that stagger from one national conflict to the next.

i'm sorry i messed 2 wars up, and that was the battle of 1864 and the 3 years war.

I'm truly sorry!

Det var godt klaret at vi vandt den første krig. Ærgeligt vi ikke vandt den anden :/

Jeg synes egentligt det er underligt at Nordisk-film eller DR eller tv2 ikke har lavet en film eller en serie omkring det her historiske emne, for jeg tror at det ville blive en stor succes på linje med "Flammen og Citronen".

Hi Oldsteamer01, I'm Danish and I've always found the conflict about Schleswig fascinating.

Just one thing, seen from a Danish perspective Schleswig/Sønderjylland was Danish from the beginning. If you go back to the age of the Vikings, the most important city in Scandinavia was Hedeby, near todays city of Schleswig. The Danish king Niels was killed there in 1134 and so was king Erik in 1250.

As I understand it, it was only during the Middle Age that the people there began to speak German.

The plebiscite shortly after WWII was a somewhat uneasy solution for Germany. It's well documented that after the "public" vote there were by far more Germans left trapped in Denmark than there were Danes left inside the German border. But right after the war there was very little that Germany could do about it. One could argue that the policy was not much different to the carving up of huge chunks out of the Prussian territory and then hand it over to Poland. Justice made by the winner.

a document in which he promised the everlasting union between Schleswig and Holstein. that was the real birth of the "hyphen-country", from now on you could speak of "Schleswig-Holstein". This union did not violate the fact that Schleswig was not a part of the Holy Roman Empire; on the contrary, as Duke of Holstein the Danish Kings were German princes; one of them saw Luther at the Reichstag in Worms in 1521, his son , who was was with him, broght the reformation to Denmark some years later.

[Jeansschwimmer]

You are right. The German influence and migration into the area became bigger at the end of the middle ages, after Count Adolf VIIIth of Holstein had conquered Schleswig and then convinced the Danish nobles to make his nephew Christian of Oldenburg King of Denmark (Adolf knew he would die childless himself). In 1448 Christian became King Christian Ist, he followed his uncle as Duke of schleswig and Count of Holstein in 1459/60. The nobles in Schleswig and Holstein made the new monarch sign

[Jeansschwimmer]

No, it did not.

The idea of splitting Schleswig- (Holstein was always out of any question- it had only been an integral part of Denmark when Napoleon had conquered Germany and held it under his command until 1813/15-) had been thought of at the hight of the crisis, but was dropped after the Prussian annexiation. In 1918 the powers in Versailles demanded for a plebiscite, the north of Schleswig voted for Denmark, the south wanted to stay in Germany and did. The present border was the result.
