Denmark has a diverse, mixed economy, but one that relies almost entirely on human resources, as there are few mineral resources available, except mature oil and gas wells in the North Sea. Cooperatives form a large part of some sectors, be it in housing, agriculture or retail. Foundations play a large role as owners of private sector companies. Denmark's nominal GDP was estimated to be $333,238 million, the 32nd largest in the world. It has the world's lowest level of income inequality, according to the World Bank Gini (%), and the world's highest minimum wage, according to the IMF. As of June 2010 the unemployment rate is at 7.4%, which is below the EU average of 9.6%. As of 28 February 2014 Denmark is among the countries with the highest credit rating.
Denmark's main exports are: industrial production/manufactured goods 73.3% (of which machinery and instruments were 21.4%, and fuels, chemicals, etc. 26%); agricultural products and others for consumption 18.7% (in 2009 meat and meat products were 5.5% of total export; fish and fish products 2.9%). Denmark is a net exporter of food and energy and has since the 1990s had a balance of payments surplus. The accumulated value of service and merchandise exports in 2013 amounted to 54% of GDP, and imports in 2013 amounted to 49% of GDP. Notable among the service exports are container shipping. There is no net foreign debt as other countries owe more money to Denmark than Denmark owes to them, but because of large deficits due to increased unemployment levels the central government has increased its debt level since the end of September 2008, when it stood at 21 percent (gross debt) of GDP, according to the central bank - in accordance with the Eurostat EMU- gross debt numbers, which only take liabilities into account. (See below (Budgets)). Taking assets into account as well net debt of the central government was 11 percent. The public sector as a whole had net assets of 108 billion kroner in 2008. Within the European Union, Denmark advocates a liberal trade policy. Its standard of living is average among the Western European countries - and for many years the most equally distributed as shown by the Gini coefficient - in the world, and the Danes devote 0.8% of gross national income (GNI) to foreign aid. It is a society based on consensus (dialogue and compromise) with the Danish Confederation of Trade Unions and the Confederation of Danish Employers in 1899 in Septemberforliget (The September Settlement) recognising each other's right to organise, thus, negotiate. The employer's right to hire and fire their employees whenever they find it necessary is recognised. There is no official minimum wage (Danish: minimumsløn) set by the government; the minimum of wages (Danish: mindsteløn) is determined by negotiations between the organisations of employers and employees. Denmark produces oil, natural gas, wind- and bio-energy. Its principal exports are machinery, instruments and food products. The US is Denmark's largest non-European trading partner, accounting for around 5% of total Danish merchandise trade. Aircraft, computers, machinery, and instruments are among the major US exports to Denmark. Among major Danish exports to the U.S. are industrial machinery, chemical products, furniture, pharmaceuticals, Lego and canned ham and pork.

Denmark scholars explicitly state that Christianity is the origin of many of its values, institutions, etc.
"Compared with most other countries in the world, Denmark's societal institutions and popular mentality have been shaped by Christianity to an exceptional degree... religion is more firmly entrenched in Danish society than in many other countries....The Church of Denmark...has nearly 80% of the population as members."
denmark.dk/en/society/religion/
Secular education uses propaganda to rob people (even Danish commenters below) of facts that even atheist scholars admit:
"Everything good in Western civilization, from individual liberty to the arts, is due to Christianity." - Murray Rothbard
This is like teaching relativity but attributing it to Darwin instead of Einstein.
"28% of Danish citizens responded that "they believe there is a God", 47% responded that "they believe there is some sort of spirit or life force" and 24% responded that "they do not believe there is any sort of spirit, God or life force". Another poll, carried out in 2008, found that 25% of Danes believe Jesus is the son of God, and 18% believe he is the Savior of the world.[3]
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_in_Denmark
When Bible principles are followed, even secular research foundations like Blue Zones show they brings happiness and health to life (see www.bluezones.com or quest.bluezones.com). These Bible factors are big reasons Denmark is #1 in happiness and #1 in peace (http://travel.amerikanki.com/most-peaceful-countries-in-the-world/) or close to it year after year after year.
There are ~20+ biblical principles on economics. Denmark follows a number of them even better than America. That is a key ingredient to their happiness.
http://www.truth-is-life.org/jubileeeconomics.html
Basically, the Bible advocated either:
1A) Distribution of all land and natural resources, since these were created by God and not any human being. The Bible repeatedly instructed Israel to give every family permanent land in Joshua 13-18, Ezekiel 45-6 and other places. When kings such as Solomon did this in 1 Kings 4:25, it brought great peace and safety to all.
Concentration of wealth dramatically increases corruption, bribery and the ability of a few elite to control media companies and education and brain wash people which is precisely why American founders feared it worse than invading armies.
AFTER land is shared fairly, THEN the free market takes over and those who work hard can get rich, but all can take care of their basic needs. This was the Jubilee system that God gave Israel (VERY briefly).
1B) If the land is not divided fairly as is ideal, then God required pagan nations to guarantee the basic needs of the poor (Daniel 4:25). Kids and a few others need full support. Adults should be supported in ways to make them self-sufficient as soon as possible, never for no work done.
Many ancient nations/tribes and 1000s of great thinkers agree that these are the only 2 ethical economic systems and they are the only ones that prevent many societal ills. Capitalism, communism and most forms of socialism refuse to recognize these principles..
Denmark, Sweden and some others are doing B with free education, free health care, etc. America isn't currently doing EITHER A or B and so is having big problems.
2) Danes don't make materialism the #1 idol as many nations do. People are much more important. The Bible says repeatedly that greed is the root of all evil and we can see this in many situations all throughout history causing much destruction, including millions of kids dying every year these days because of capitalism.
Dr. Woodberry has completed the most rigorous study so far and shown that protestant missionaries are by far the #1 factor in bringing democracy and freedom to countries around the world. See:
https://www.disciplenations.org/media/CT-Article-On-Missionaries-And-Global-Democracy.pdf
http://isites.harvard.edu/fs/docs/icb.topic965299.files/Woodberry%20APSR%202011.pdf
Christianity pioneered economic rights as well as many human rights and a good deal of morals and stopped many abuses as well 1000s of years before science figured out why they were important. Bible principles add ~10 years to life and increase, happiness, success, mental stability, marriage quality and other things.

In the midst of European economic crises, the Nordic region has emerged largely unscathed, continuing to top global indexes in health, education, equality and well-being as well as recording impressive economic growth. Sweden, Denmark and Norway have drawn praise from across the political spectrum; from social democrats to free marketers, while Scottish nationalists often cite the Scandinavian countries as role models for an independent Scotland. But why is this region so successful? What is the secret? Or has the Nordic model gone from being idolised to being romanticised and mythologised? This must watch debate filmed at the Battle of Ideas, includes a remarkable expose of Sweden's dark history of forced sterilisation.

Helena Norberg-Hodge, producer "The Economics of Happiness," joins Thom Hartmann. This week - the United Nations is hosting a major conference on...happiness. That's right - with the world obsessed with wealth, austerity, and debt-to-GDP levels - the United Nations is taking a step back to figure out what makes people in some nations way happier than people in other nations. The conference is hosted by the Kingdom of Bhutan - a small country in the Himalayan Mountains. Bhutan is one of the poorest nations in the world - yet - it's the happiest nation in Asia - and one of the happiest in the world. So what does Bhutan know that the rest of us don't? Well - that's what the United Nations wants to find out. On last night's show - we talked a little bit about this topic by dissecting the nation of Denmark - which routinely tops the list of happiest nations on the planet. So what else can we learn about how to be a happier nation?

Frederick IX (Christian Frederik Franz Michael Carl Valdemar Georg) (11 March 1899 -- 14 January 1972) was King of Denmark from 20 April 1947 until his death. He was the son of King Christian X of Denmark and Queen Alexandrine, born Duchess of Mecklenburg.
Frederick's reign saw great change. During these years, Danish society shook off the restrictions of an agricultural society and developed a welfare state. And, as a consequence of the booming economy of the 1960s, women entered the labour market. In other words, Denmark became a modern country, which meant new demands on the monarchy.

With 5.6 million inhabitants, Denmark has been at the vanguard of nations adopting circular economy principles. The government of Denmark has shown its commitment to securing a sustainable future for its citizens by launching a strategic program: Denmark without Waste. Aimed at transforming policies, businesses and society, the program has several initiatives in place to encourage green business models, green technology, innovation funding, better regulation, favorable waste policies, as well as improved education and training. With ambitious targets such as recycling 50 percent of all household waste by 2022 and becoming independent of fossil fuels by 2015, Denmark is hoping to set the standard amongst nations in becoming a green and resource-efficient economy. These national initiatives are supplemented by initiatives at a regional level. The city of Copenhagen plans to become the first carbon-neutral capital by 2025. In 2011, Copenhagen had already reduced CO2 emissions by 21 percent compared to 2005.

Denmark's first female prime minister has reshuffled her cabinet in a bid to kick start the country's economy and halt faltering support for her centre-left government.
Helle Thorning-Schmidt has appointed Henrik Sass Larsen as minister for business and growth in one of several ministerial changes. The country has been poised on the brink of a recession.
"We want to discuss how we will get growth in Denmark, how we create jobs," she told TV2 News television, introducing Sass-Larsen an ambitious ally in her Social Democrat Party.
Thorning-Schmidt, who unseated Lars Lokke Rasmussen's liberal-conservative coalition two years ago, has watched support for her centre-left coalition government ebb after forcing through cuts to unemployment benefits, student grants and early retirement packages.
Many Danes have criticised what they call her backtracking on a election promise to "bring Denmark out on the other side of the (economic) crisis".
Denmark has struggled to boost consumer confidence since a property bubble burst, leaving many people wary of spending. The global financial crisis has also dampened exports, another main
