South Greenland was a Danish colony on Greenland consisting of the trading centers and missionary stations along the southwest coast of the island. Its capital was at Godthaab (modern Nuuk).〔Brewster, David. "(Greenland )". ''The Edinburgh Encyclopedia'', Vol 10. J. & E. Parker, 1832.〕 The northernmost town of South Greenland was Holsteinborg, which bordered Egedesminde, which was the southernmost town of North Greenland. This boundary between South and North Greenland ran at around 68°N degree of latitude, and in the South, South Greenland stretched to 59°30'N,〔(James Bell: A System of Geography. Glasgow 1892 ) p. 281 ''CHAP. III-GREENLAND.〕 or to the southernmost point of Greenland. In 1911, as the administration of the colony was removed from the Royal Greenland Trading Department and folded into the Danish Ministry of the Interior, a provincial council ((デンマーク語:landsråd)) was established. It was elected indirectly from the local councils and had little say in the management of the colony. It was united with North Greenland in 1950. ==See also== * List of inspectors of South Greenland, for the chief officers of the colony between 1782 and 1924 * List of governors of South Greenland, for the chief officers of the colony between 1924 and 1950 * North Greenland 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「South Greenland」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
