Denmark is located in the northern region and lacks resources. For hundreds of years, it has been suffering from major plagues, fires, invasions and bombings by foreign enemies, and the torture of world wars. All kinds of disasters have caused great damage to the Danish economy. Perhaps because of this, there is an ugly duckling complex in the Danish national character. Reading Danish books or watching Danish movies, you will find that the world described by the Danes is largely unfortunate. Andersen’s fairy tales are always bad at the beginning and not necessarily at the end. Always good.
Denmark is surrounded by the sea on three sides and consists of 406 islands including Jutland, Zealand and Funen. The Danes are used to kayaking, surfing, fishing and drying salt in the sea, and they have dreamed of conquering the ocean since ancient times. In the Viking era, the Danes sailed on a long-masted, flat-bottomed, 11-knot-per-hour clipper to go to sea to find their dreams. They often went south to European countries in exchange for amber and flint in exchange for grain and other utensils.
In the lobby of the famous Maersk company hangs a huge chart with densely planted Maersk flags. They have offices in 125 countries. Maersk started as a second-hand freighter in 1904. Today, it has developed into the world's largest container company with more than 60,000 employees, more than 470 container ships, and a total load of more than 18 million tons. The Danish nation's dream of the sea for generations has been realized in Maersk.
