The Danish Civil War refers to a series of conflicts in Denmark during the early 19th century, primarily between 1848 and 1850. The war arose from tensions between the monarchy and those advocating for democratic reforms. The conflict involved various factions, including liberals seeking constitutional changes and conservatives supporting the existing monarchy. The war concluded with the establishment of a constitutional monarchy in Denmark, leading to the adoption of the Constitution of 1849. This new constitution marked a significant shift in governance, granting civil liberties and establishing a parliamentary system, which laid the foundation for modern Danish democracy.
