Denmark is a country located in the Scandinavia region of northern Europe, with its capital at Copenhagen. Denmark was first united in 936 by Gorm the Old, and Gorm's son Harald Bluetooth converted the pagan Danes to Christianity. Since then, Denmark has been a Christian monarchy, and Denmark once united much of Scandinavia under its "Kalmar Union" from 1397 to 1523; Denmark ruled Norway until 1814. In 1849, Denmark became a constitutional monarchy, and it underwent social reforms in the 20th century, transforming Denmark into a welfare state. By the 21st century, Denmark was rated as the happiest country on Earth, as the nation was neutral and had a strong economy. In 2016, Denmark had a population of 5,707,251 people.
