German relations with neighboring countries

Germany's relationship with Denmark:

Denmark has an embassy in Berlin, Germany

Germany has an embassy in Copenhagen, Denmark

The current Danish-German border was established in 1920 by a referendum however, the border is considered to be a "soft border" and has been a positive source of cooperation between the two countries.

A large amount of minority populations live on each side of the border often called "fresians".

Many consider the border between these two countries to be a "model" of what border relations should be.

During World War II Germany invaded Denmark in the 1940s to use their land as a staging area for operations taking place in Norway.
