“Synnejysk Daw” “SYNNEJYSK DAW” About “Synnejysk daw” “SYNNEJYSK DAW” (Subcamp Day with Traditional South Jutland Culture and Activities) Material for inspiration 1 About “Synnejysk daw” Subcamp Day at Jamboree Denmark 2017 Preface We have decided to use the location of the jamboree as a theme for the housing estate/subcamp day. Therefore, gatherings, activities and meals all revolve around the culture and traditions of Southern Jutland. The purpose of the day is to: • Give the scouts and guides an insight into the traditions and culture of Southern Jutland. • Allow the scouts and guides to do activities together across groups. • Give the scouts and guides a sense of being part of a large fellowship at the subcamp. • Give the scouts and guides the opportunity to play, be creative, inspire each other and leave impressions. We have set a framework for the day that involves a tilting-at-the-ring tournament, a regional dish from Southern Jutland and a special kind of cake buffet. Additionally, we hope that you will draw inspiration from this activity booklet, combine your great ideas and energy to do just the things that will give your scouts and guides a good “Synnejysk daw”.

Southern Jutland today is the regions that became a part of Denmark at the reunification in 1920 after having been under German rule since 1864. The German minority in Southern Jutland call the region North Schleswig. Southern Jutland has around 250,000 inhabitants, and 15,000 belong to the German minority. On the map, you can see the current Southern Jutland (pale pink coloured). You can also see the part that remained German after 1920 (light blue coloured).

The town was founded around ‘Sønderborg Slot’ (Sønderborg Castle) a little before the year 1200, and it is known for its dynamic business environment with many companies and for its department of the University of Southern Denmark. The other major towns in Southern Jutland are Aabenraa, Haderslev, Tønder and Vojens. The history of Southern Jutland in 5 minutes Throughout history, Southern Jutland has played an important role as a border region. The border region is the “bloodiest ground” in Denmark, but it is also an area in which Danes, Frisians and Germans live closely together. The history of the border region is important to understand the history of Denmark, and it also gives a lot of inspiration for how to live peacefully side by side after the conflicts and wars of the past. Until 1544: Viking Age and Middle Ages: Around the year 800, the border to Germany was along the river Eider (see the map). Around halfway between the Eider and Flensburg, the ‘Dannevirke’ fortress is locates. ‘Dannevirke’ is an earthen rampart crossing the narrowest place in Jutland. It was created as part of the defence against enemies from the south. At the end of the 1100s, greater Southern Jutland (both the pale pink and blue areas on the map) became a duchy. 1544-1830: Dukes and unified state: Three dukes ruled Southern Jutland together until 1721, when the Danish autocratic king became the lord of the region. Later on, Holsten (south of the Eider) was also ruled by the Danish king, and the period until 1830 was peaceful and the golden age of the Danish-German unified state. 1830-1864: The national conflict began: The national mindset gained ground in Denmark – Danish language and culture would define the Danish-German border. This caused a conflict in the border region and triggered a civil war in 1848 known as the Three-Year War, which Denmark won. However, a new border was still not agreed on, and this resulted in another war in 1864, in which Germany and Austria defeated Denmark, which had to surrender all of Southern Jutland. 1864-1920: The German age: The Southern Jutlanders found ways to meet and practice solidarity and Danishness despite the rules of the German realm, which limited the possibility to assemble and form associations. The traditional cake buffet (‘sønderjysk kaffebord’) and the regional farmers’ associations in Denmark played a central role. When Germany lost World War I in 1918, the road was 6 About “Synnejysk daw” paved for the reunification of Southern Jutland and Denmark. Therefore, two referendums were held. In 1920, a majority of 75% of the electorate in North Schleswig voted that the region should belong to Denmark. A short while later, a majority of 80% of the electorate in South Schleswig voted that the region should belong to Germany. This is why the border was drawn where it is today. After 1920: The reunited Southern Jutland: The minorities north and south of the border organised themselves with their own priests, schools, associations and political parties. The border did not change during World War II in 1940-1945, but when Germany lost the war, the Danish state instituted prosecutions against many individuals from the German minority because of their collaboration with the German occupying power. Many were detained in the Frøslev Camp next to the border. Later, both Denmark and Germany joined NATO, and tensions between the two countries have gradually decreased. Cooperation is now good between South Schleswig and Southern Jutland. 7 About “Synnejysk daw” About jousting (backstory) Jousting – the national sport of Southern Jutland Jousting has its roots in the medieval knight’s tournaments, which were a popular form of entertainment held by kings and princes in Europe. Knights fought with lances and swords whilst astride a horse -- a dangerous and violent competition. The Pope banned the sport after Henry the II, king of France, died in a tournament in 1559. A less dangerous way of training and competing against others was found, called ‘The Italian Carrousel’. The knights rode in a circular arena, and had to stab enemies made of straw and also make their lances go through some small rings to train their precision. It is from this non-violent sport that modern jousting is derived. The tradition lives on in Southern Jutland, in South Schleswig, Holstein, and a few other places. In Southern Jutland jousting starts in May in the smaller towns, and ends with the large jousting

  • Borders in Globalization Country Report on Denmark-Germany
    1 2 _________________________________ Borers in oaiation Resear roet 2 Borders in Globalization enmar Germany artin Klatt sabelle alteru University of Borders in Globalization (BIG) DENMARK - GERMANY Isabelle Walther-Duc Martin Klatt A. Introduction Fig. 1: freight and persons crossing the Danish borders, 2006 and 2009/2011 The Danish-German border is short in comparison to other EU internal borders. Still it is relevant also as the border between the continent and Scandinavia, or the countries within the Nordic Council. The border’s history is conflict ridden. It was drawn in 1920, together with other new borders drawn in connection with the post WW-I order in Europe, reflecting (not only) the result of a plebiscite. The decades from 1920 to the 1950’s witnessed a bordering process with clear demarcation as well as the introduction of strict visa regimes and migration restriction, accompanied by the cut of economic flows and continued political challenges to the exact location of the border. Especially Denmark was interested in securing the border from possible German claims of revision. This changed only after Denmark joined the EC in 1973. Infrastructure investments as a freeway (opened fully in 1983) connecting the Jutland peninsula with the Hamburg metropolitan area and its seaport (2nd-3rd in Europe), the shorter “line as the birds fly” rail and road connection across Fehmarn-Lolland, disrupted by a 1 h ferry passage (1963), the introduction of frequent ferry services on the Rostock-Gedser route after German reunification (1990) and the planned fixed link under the Fehmarn Belt together with railway and road improvements on both shores (opening in the 2020’s) have made the region the major transport corridor between Europe and Scandinavia.

  • The Cimbri of Denmark, the Norse and Danish Vikings, and Y-DNA Haplogroup R-S28/U152 - (Hypothesis A)
    The Cimbri of Denmark, the Norse and Danish Vikings, and Y-DNA Haplogroup R-S28/U152 - (Hypothesis A) David K. Faux The goal of the present work is to assemble widely scattered facts to accurately record the story of one of Europe’s most enigmatic people of the early historic era – the Cimbri. To meet this goal, the present study will trace the antecedents and descendants of the Cimbri, who reside or resided in the northern part of the Jutland Peninsula, in what is today known as the County of Himmerland, Denmark. It is likely that the name Cimbri came to represent the peoples of the Cimbric Peninsula and nearby islands, now called Jutland, Fyn and so on. Very early (3rd Century BC) Greek sources also make note of the Teutones, a tribe closely associated with the Cimbri, however their specific place of residence is not precisely located. It is not until the 1st Century AD that Roman commentators describe other tribes residing within this geographical area. At some point before 500 AD, there is no further mention of the Cimbri or Teutones in any source, and the Cimbric Cheronese (Peninsula) is then called Jutland. As we shall see, problems in accomplishing this task are somewhat daunting. For example, there are inconsistencies in datasources, and highly conflicting viewpoints expressed by those interpreting the data. These difficulties can be addressed by a careful sifting of diverse material that has come to light largely due to the storehouse of primary source information accessed by the power of the Internet. Historical, archaeological and genetic data will be integrated to lift the veil that has to date obscured the story of the Cimbri, or Cimbrian, peoples.

Remembering the Schleswig War of 1864: A Turning Point in German and Danish National Identity1 by Julie K. Allen Every country tells itself stories about its origins and the moments that define its history. Many of these stories are connected to wars, for example the tale of how George Washington and his troops crossed the frozen Delaware river to surprise the British and turn the tide of the Revolutionary War, or the way the American public rallied after the attack on Pearl Harbor to retool the American economy and support American troops in the fight against fascism. Not surprisingly, the stories we tell about our own country are most often ones about wars from which we emerge victorious, rather than those that reveal a society in disarray or economically devastated.

  • King of the Danes’ Stephen M
    Hamlet with the Princes of Denmark: An exploration of the case of Hálfdan ‘king of the Danes’ Stephen M. Lewis University of Caen Normandy, CRAHAM [email protected] As their military fortunes waxed and waned, the Scandinavian armies would move back and forth across the Channel with some regularity [...] appearing under different names and in different constellations in different places – Neil Price1 Little is known about the power of the Danish kings in the second half of the ninth century when several Viking forces ravaged Frankia and Britain – Niels Lund2 The Anglo-Saxon scholar Patrick Wormald once pointed out: ‘It is strange that, while students of other Germanic peoples have been obsessed with the identity and office of their leaders, Viking scholars have said very little of such things – a literal case of Hamlet without princes of Denmark!’3 The reason for this state of affairs is two-fold. First, there is a dearth of reliable historical, linguistic and archaeological evidence regarding the origins of the so-called ‘great army’ in England, except that it does seem, and is generally believed, that they were predominantly Danes - which of course does not at all mean that they all they came directly from Denmark itself, nor that ‘Danes’ only came from the confines of modern Denmark. Clare Downham is surely right in saying that ‘the political history of vikings has proved controversial due to a lack of consensus as to what constitutes reliable evidence’.4 Second, the long and fascinating, but perhaps ultimately unhealthy, obsession with the legendary Ragnarr loðbrók and his litany of supposed sons has distracted attention from what we might learn from a close and separate examination of some of the named leaders of the ‘great army’ in England, without any inferences being drawn from later Northern sagas about their dubious familial relationships to one another.5 This article explores the case of one such ‘Prince of Denmark’ called Hálfdan ‘king of the Danes’.

  • Danish and German National Symbols
    Danish and German national symbols By Inge Adriansen National symbols are meant to make all of us - individuals as well as members of specific groups - feel part of the common nation. National symbols are meant to illustrate our shared past and show our expected future. If a symbol is properly worked out, we’ll be able to identify ourselves with the hidden message included in the symbol. In the 1960es national symbols were simply out! The use of national symbols expressed an oldfashioned conservative philo­ sophy, which - at the time - only a few wished to be identified with. To day it is quite different. Since the mid-seventies natio­ nal symbolism has had a renaissance in Denmark, and apparently this can be directly connected with Denmark’s entry into the Eu­ ropean Economic Community, the EEC. At the referendum in 1972 regarding Danish membership the political agitation flourished, and the opponents touched the national chords as much as possible. So they did at yet two other EEC-referendums in 1986 and 1992. A couple of days before the voting in 1986 I visited Aarhus. In the main street I was con­ fronted with a row of posters, stating: »Holger says no!« - »Hol­ ger shall always say no« - »Do as Holger. Say no!« This was the brief, distinct message of a long line of posters. A foreigner would never be able to guess who Holger was and what he refused. But to a Dane it was obvious! Who else could it be but our old national hero Holger Danske (Dane), who cal­ led upon all his compatriots to vote NO to the EC? The posters were distributed by SF, the People’s Socialist Party.
