Research draft, second pass

A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description

Let an agent explain the Danes, relay nationality and ethnicity, language, the position of Greenlanders and immigrant communities, and identity debates from demographic and cultural sources with debates attributed, describe the resident categories and flag the unverified alias, and distinguish Danes as a nationality from ethnic Danes, other Scandinavians and Danish citizens of immigrant background.

The people of Denmark or of Danish nationality and culture, mainly speakers of Danish, with a shared history, and, as the registry aliases show, including citizens of Denmark from immigrant backgrounds such as Lebanese and Pakistani communities in Denmark and Greenlanders, who are citizens of the Kingdom of Denmark with their own Inuit identity, so these are nationality or resident categories rather than a single ethnic group; the alias Ismarker could not be verified. Danish national identity combines ethnic Danes with a diverse citizenry, and debates about immigration and integration are attributed. The model presents the people respectfully.

What it is for: Not applicable; a people and nationality.

It can be explain nationality and ethnicity; relay language and communities; flag the unverified alias; present identity debates with attribution.

What the second pass must settle

  • How should immigrant communities be documented as resident categories?
