East Denmark (Danish: Østdanmark) is a geographical term that refers to the part of Denmark east of Storebælt, including Zealand, Amager, Lolland, Falster, Møn, Bornholm, and Ertholmene. From a linguistic and historical point of view the term refers to the area east of the Øresund (the former Danish territories Scania, Halland and Blekinge and Bornholm).[1] The former dialects in Skåneland are accordingly called East Danish (Østdansk).
