Denmark has a Law on Personal Names. Under this law, parents are limited to a list of about 7,000 names. If one wishes to choose a name not on the list, they must receive the approval of the local church and a government official.
One of the most important values in Danish culture is "hygge", a concept that closely translates to "coziness". Hygge refers to a feeling of warmth, camaraderie, and peace - think Christmas eve or a summer campfire . Discussing politics...totally not Hygge.

Jutland is home to the Bog Man (Tollund Man), a 2600-year-old, naturally-mummified corpse so well-preserved that he was mistaken for a recent murder victim at the time of discovery.
