The Romani, also spelled Romany or Rromani (/ˈrməni/ ROH-mə-nee or /ˈrɒməni/ ROM-ə-nee), colloquially known as the Roma (sg.: Rom), are an Indo-Aryan ethnic group who traditionally lived a nomadic, itinerant lifestyle.

The first recorded Romani people in Denmark came from Scotland in the year 1505.[1] Danish police drove out most Roma in Denmark by the 1939.[2]

Based on 2013 data, the Council of Europe has estimated that around 5,500 Romani people live in Denmark (0.1% of the Danish population).[3] The Danish Roma minority speak Scandoromani.[4]

Danish Roma are concentrated in Helsingør and Copenhagen.<ref>https://books.google.com/books?id=tXBQDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA172<ref>
