Jutland (; (デンマーク語:Jylland) (:ˈjylanˀ); (ドイツ語:Jütland) (:ˈjyːtlant)), also known as the Cimbrian Peninsula ((デンマーク語:Den Kimbriske Halvø) (ドイツ語:Kimbrische Halbinsel)), is a peninsula of Northern Europe that forms the continental portion of Denmark and the northern portion of Germany. The names are derived from the Jutes and the Cimbri, respectively. Jutland's terrain is relatively flat, with open lands, heaths, plains and peat bogs in the west and a more elevated and slightly hilly terrain in the east. == Geography == Jutland is a peninsula surrounded by the North Sea to the west, the Skagerrak to the north, the Kattegat and Baltic Sea to the east, and Germany to the south. Physically it comprises the three contemporary Danish Administrative Regions of North Denmark Region, Central Denmark Region, and the Region of Southern Denmark, along with portions of the German state of Schleswig-Holstein. As a political territory, its boundaries have varied at different periods in history. The historic region of Jutland, the area that was regulated by Codex Holmiensis (''Jyske Lov''), extended from the Jutland Peninsula area north of Eider River to Funen, the North Jutlandic Island and other smaller islands. Contemporary Danish Jutland is divided into three administrative regions: North Denmark Region, Central Denmark Region, and Region of Southern Denmark.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.rn.dk/Service/English )〕 These three regions have a total area of and a population of 2,528,129 (2008). Population density is 84 per km2 (218 per sq.mi.). The northernmost part of Jutland is separated from the mainland by the Limfjord but is still commonly reckoned as part of the peninsula. It only became an island following a flood in 1825. This area is called the North Jutlandic Island, Vendsyssel-Thy (after its districts), or simply ''Jutland north of the Limfjord''; it is only partly co-terminous with the region called North Jutland. The islands Læsø, Anholt and Samsø in Kattegat and Als at the rim of the Baltic Sea South are administratively and historically tied to Jutland, although the latter two are also regarded as traditional districts of their own. Inhabitants of Als would agree to be South Jutlanders, but not necessarily Jutlanders. The Danish Wadden Sea Islands and the German North Frisian Islands stretch along the southwest coast of Jutland in the German Bight. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jutland」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
