Any reason the name of the article isn't 'The unity of the Realm'? On Google, this gives 1.8M results while "Danish realm" only gives 122K results. Semsûrî (talk) 22:29, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies that someone took this long to reply, but as decided here, the consensus at the time (following extensive discussion and a previous failed vote) was that Danish Realm was a clearer and more understandable term, as opposed to the Kingdom of Denmark (this would conflict with the article for Denmark proper) or The Unity Of The Realm (a direct translation of rigsenheden, an old term that's now been supplanted by rigsfællesskabet, lit. Realm Fellowship). It is confusing when doing research, yes, but I believe it's less confusing than the unwieldy unity of the Realm.

As laid out in the article's intro, unity of the Realm refers to the relationship between the three parts of the kingdom, whereas this article talks about the area of which the Monarch of Denmark is head of state, and the legal/political structure thereof.

It is not about how many results on Google Search it is about reliable sources UnsungHistory (Questions?) (Did I mess up?) 00:35, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Greenland, already populated by the Indigenous Greenlandic Inuit, was settled by Norwegians in the 10th century, among those Erik the Red

This is factually wrong! The Norse arrived to Southern Greenland around 900 and there were no Inuit or other peoples around.

The Inuit Thule culture migrated from present day Canada to Northern Greenland around 1300 only reacing Southern Greenland around 1500.

The arctic Dorset culture was present in Northern Greenland around 900, but it was outcompeted and anihilated by the Inuit Thule Culture.

It is a totally false statement to claim that there was an Inuit population in Greenland when the Norse arrived.

The Norse in Greenland were in this respect, just as indigenous to Southern Greenland.

You need a source UnsungHistory (Questions?) (Did I mess up?) 00:33, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I know WP:NOTSOURCE applies, but the History of Greenland page backs this up. I imagine whatever sources it uses are usable here. TheLegendofGanon (talk) 05:54, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In the section of the table that gives the area of each constituent component of the Danish Realm, the figure provided for "Denmark" (as in "Denmark proper" is actually the figure for the entirety of the Dabish Realm; metropolitan Denmark does not have a larger area than Greenland!

However, I'm on my mobile so I can't easily correct it. Ionophore (talk) 20:16, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Corrected the claimed area of Denmark. Today I changed the infobox to match the area of Denmark as cited in the table elsewhere on this page. Feel free to close this discussion topic if you agree with the change. Crookedsquare (talk) 16:26, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What is the source for the flag being different from the main Danish one? I've had a look around and haven't really found anything to suggest the Kingdom is represented by a separate flag. TheLegendofGanon (talk) 06:23, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There doesn't seem to be one, it was done to copy da.wiki. CMD (talk) 06:55, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In that case, I think the flag and coat of arms should be changed to match metropolitan Denmark's, unless a source say otherwise. TheLegendofGanon (talk) 08:34, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unless anyone has any objections, I'm going to be WP:BOLD and carry out the changes. TheLegendofGanon (talk) 20:59, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
