What is special about Denmark?

Denmark is to the north of Germany.

Denmark is considered to be one of the four Nordic countries of Europe (the others being Norway, Sweden and Iceland). It is the southernmost of these, lying southwest of Sweden, and south of Norway (Iceland is far off in the North Atlantic). It is bordered to the south by Germany. The Baltic Sea lies to the east of Denmark and the North Sea lies to the west. The country consists of a large peninsula, Jutland (aka Jylland), and many islands; the largest are Zealand (aka Sjælland), Funen (aka Fyn), Vendsyssel-Thy (although this is sometimes lumped with Jutland), Lolland, Falster, and Bornholm. A hundred or so minor islands making up the "Danish Archipelago" lie around Jutland in the North Sea and Baltic Sea and are part of Denmark.

Greenland could also be considered part of Denmark although it is now an autonomous country with Denmark only exercising control in foreign relations. Greenland, of course, is located between the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans east of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago of North America and is categorized as part of North America.

What happened to Copenhagen Denmark after the Holocaust?

The question seem to imply that Copenhagen as whole was a target of the Holocaust, which would be a bit of an exaggeration. There were approx. 7.000 Jews living in Denmark at the time of the German occupation - most of them in Copenhagen. With the exception of people who due to old age or illness were unable to travel, almost all Jews were saved from the Holocaust due to a number of factors (like a German official warning Danish politicians, a popular active support of the secret evacuation of Jews to coastal towns and via boats on to neutral Sweden). They stayed in Sweden until the war was over after which they returned to Denmark and Copenhagen. (PS: some apparently didn't have the patience to wait it out in Sweden and quickly snug back to Denmark and joined the resistance movement. PPS: The German official who spilled the beans, Duchwitz, became a West-German ambassador to Denmark in the 50's).

Who founded Copenhagen?

Nobody knows. It has traditionally been said that it was founded by the bishop Absalon in 1167, but that is wrong. He build a fortress/castle and seriously beefed up the fortifications, but the town had been there long before he was even born.

Recent excavations in connection with metro construction have revealed houses, wells and modest ramparts from the early 11th century, and due to the area involved they do probably not represent the very beginning of the settlement.
