Jutland of Kiel. The largest cities in the German part of Jutland or the Jutland Peninsula are Kiel and Flensburg. Geologically the Mid Jutland Region and the North Jutland Region as well as the Capital Region of Denmark are located in the north of Denmark which is rising because of post-glacial rebound. Jutland has historically been one of the three lands of Denmark, the other two being Scania and Zealand. Before that, according to Ptolemy, Jutland or the "Cimbric Chersonese" was the home of Teutons, Cimbri and Charudes.

In the mean time, the Council of the Realm governed the country, allowing the bishops to decide what could be preached in their respective dioceses. Moreover, Hans Tausen was accused of heresy and banished from Zealand but the bishop of Roskilde called him back after only one month.

The Council had furthermore decided to join a Netherlandic–Slesvigian–Holsatian alliance instead of Lübeck
