What does the cross mean in the Denmark flag?

The danish flag 'Dannebrog' (the name is assumed to mean the 'Red cloth') has its origin in the time of the crusades - not to the Holy Land, but to the eastern shores of the Baltic sea. Here the Danish kings in 12th and 13th century attacked pagan Slavonic tribes with papal approval and converted them 'by the sword'. At the same time and in the same regions German knights did the very same, and most likely the Danish flag is inspired by the crosses of the German knights - perhaps the entire design is 'stolen' from a specific order.

The official legend says that the flag fell from the sky as a sign from God during a tough battle against the pagans in Estonia in 1219, but it actually seem to predate that battle.

Dannebrog, which by the way is the world oldest state flag still in use, replaced the red raven flag used by the Viking kings. The cross design of the Danish flag has formed model for the Swedish, Norwegian, Finnish and Icelandic national flags.

The size of an island is not determined by the total area ruled by a government. Greenland is the second-largest island (after Australia) and the largest not designated as a separate continent.

How much education do people have in Denmark?

Nine years mandatory education - not necessarily in a school, since home teaching is allowed (though extremely rare).

If ones aims for an academic education, the school is typically followed by three years in the Gymnasium.

Interesting facts: Within OECD Denmark is the country with the oldest average age for university graduates. This is due to a historical tendency to have several sabbatical years between Gymnasium and University, and a few incentives to complete the studies quickly: Education is free and the state grants are generous by international standards (€700 K / mth if one lives by oneself, half if you live at home with your parents).
