History
The history of Denmark as a unified kingdom began in the 8th century, but prehistoric cultures populated the area for about 12,000 years, since the end of the last ice age. Historic descriptions of the area and people from around 500 AD include writings by Jordanes and Procopius. The kingdom arose before the Christianization of the Danes c. 960 AD. The Viking kings Gorm the Old and Harald Bluetooth from that time are predecessors of today's king, Frederik X, thus the monarchy of Denmark is the oldest in Europe.
