International status

Self-governing territory of the Kingdom of Denmark, not a UN member state

The Faroe Islands govern most domestic matters themselves under Danish sovereignty. Denmark handles defense and much of foreign affairs, so the islands are not a separate UN member state.

Emblem World includes UN member states, territories, regions and culturally distinct places. This status note gives recognition context only; Emblem presents culture and memory, not a political endorsement.
