Copenhagen is the capital of Denmark, with diverse technologies with an emphasis on electronics, pharmaceuticals, shipbuilding, furniture craft, and alternative energy.

Danes debate the impact of technology on the quality of life, and are leaders in utilizing modern technology while promoting happiness and wellbeing.
