The Kingdom of Denmark (Danish: Kongeriget Danmark, pronounced
[ˈd̥ænmɑɡ̊] ( listen), (archaic:) [ˈd̥anmɑːɡ̊], or Danmarks Rige), or
Danish Realm, is a constitutional monarchy and a community consisting
of three autonomous countries: Denmark in northern Europe, the Faroe
Islands in the North Atlantic, and Greenland in North America, with
Denmark as the hegemonial part, where the residual judicial, executive
and legislative power rests.[1] The relationship of the member states
is referred to as Rigsfællesskabet.[2] According to the Faroese home
rule act, the Faroe Islands constitutes a community of people within
the kingdom.[note 1] The Greenlandic self-government act does not
contain a similar definition but describes the Greenlandic people as a
people as defined in international law with the right to self-
determination.[note 2]
Of the three, only Denmark is a member of the European Union.
