Danish cities are cities that can be founded by the Danish civilization in Civilization V and its expansions. The first city founded is the Capital, and the names of future cities are chosen in the order they appear on the list below.
The names listed are default names; players can change their cities' names if they choose.
This list notably excludes Swedish cities, but also has Norwegian cities, as well as one Icelandic, two ancient North American settlements, one Greenlandic and one literally named "Faroe Islands" in addition to the Danish ones.
