[eedit | eedit soorce]The Capital Region o Denmark consists o the municipalities o Copenhagen an Frederiksberg, the umwhile coonties o Copenhagen an Frederiksborg, an the regional municipality o Bornholm.
Athoot the remote island municipality Bornholm, locatit 140 km (87 mi) sootheast o Copenhagen, the population is 1,603,008 on an aurie o 1,973 km² (762 sq. m.) wi a density o 812.47 per km² (2,103 per sq m), as opposed tae 642.64 (1,665) wi aw 29 municipalities includit.
Afore 2007, a Dens Caipital Region, (Dens: Hovedstadsregionen) did exist, but it did no cover exactly the same aurie an did no hae the same legal function.
The State Admeenistration for Greater Copenhagen (Dens: Statsforvaltningen Hovedstaden) represents the central Govrenment in the Caipital Region o Denmark an supervises the Region an municipalities. It is pairt o the Meenistry o Social Welfare. The leader haulds the post o Director (Dens: Forvaltningsdirektør) an haes a university degree in law.
The primary function o Caipital Region o Denmark, as wi aw the regions o Denmark, is tae run the hospitals o the region, 15 in aw. In opposite tae for example the Unitit States an Australie, whaur the caipital region is a special federal destrict ootside the normal states, the Caipital Region o Denmark is merely a name o a normal region in Denmark.
