Which continent and country does Denmark belong to?

Denmark belongs to Europe, not to any country. Denmark is an independent country.

The Kingdom of Denmark, referred to as one of the five Nordic countries for short, is a constitutional monarchy country with two autonomous regions, the Faroe Islands and Greenland. The north faces Sweden and Norway across the North Sea and the Baltic Sea, collectively known as Scandinavian countries. The south is bordered by Germany, the capital and the largest city, Copenhagen.

Denmark is a highly developed capitalist country, a founding member of NATO and a member of the European Union. This country has an extremely perfect social welfare system, a highly developed economy, a very small gap between the rich and the poor, and its citizens enjoy a very high quality of life.
