Jutland the south. Geographically and historically, Jutland comprises the regions of South Jutland, West Jutland, East Jutland (including Djursland) and North Jutland (including Himmerland, Vendsyssel and Thy). There are several historical subdivisions and regional names, some of which are still occasionally encountered today. They include "Nørrejyllland", "Sydvestjylland", "Nordvestjylland" and "Slesvig". Politically, Jutland currently comprises the three contemporary Danish Administrative Regions of North Denmark Region, Central Denmark Region and the Region of Southern Denmark, along with portions of the German state of Schleswig-Holstein. In medieval times, Jutland was regulated by the Law Code of Jutland ("Jyske Lov"). This civic code covered the
Jutland border between the Danish and German realms from c. 850 to 1864. Although most of Schleswig-Holstein is geographically part of the Jutland peninsula, most German residents there would not identify themselves with Jutland or even as "Jutlanders", but rather with "North Germany" () and Schleswig-Holstein, considering themselves "Northern Germans" () and "Schleswig-Holsteiner". The medieval law Code of Jutland applied to Schleswig until 1900 when it was replaced by the Prussian Civil Code.
