Denmark in HOI2

[unmerged(68843)]

Inspired by a great thread about Greece, i think some corrections to Denmark in HOI2 would be appropriate. I play HOI2 1.3a, i dont know if any of these issues have been dealt with in later versions or in mods (please let me know).

The ports in the Aalborg and Århus provinces are facing the wrong way:

Århus is geographically placed on the eastern side of Jutland, and it has a much larger harbour than the smaller towns on the west coast. Its harbour should be facing the Store Bælt sea.
The naval base in the Aalborg province (Frederikshavn) is also on the eastern side of Jutland, and should be facing the Kattegat sea. It should be larger than size 1.

Beaches:
The beach in Aalborg should be facing north towards Skagerrak.
The beach ind Kolding should be facing west towards Helgoland Bight.

Tech teams:
The Burmeister and Wain naval yard should not have aeronautics speciality.
The Novo Nordisk merger did not happen until 1989.

Head of state:
I belive Christian X was more of a Popular Figurehead than a Weary Stiffneck.

There might be other details i have not noticed - and yes i know - Denmark was not the most significant nation in the world.
Please add to this if you found anything else - countryman or not.

All of this can easily be changed in the game's text files... none of this is hard-coded into the .exe

I'm looking into a few things regarding DEN at the moment (main concern is to change surrender event as Denmark didn't become puppet really and was allowed to keep its' government despite German "occupation"...) and if you have more suggestions that'll improve the historical feel to DEN please let me know.

Have you done any modding yourself?
I'll be happy to help you change the stuff that's not hard coded.

Never done modding

No, I have never done modding myself, and I would very much appreciate your help 1JACK.
If the surrender-event should be changed then an event in 1944 should be included where Germany loses the patience with Denmark and takes full control. (Do not remember exact dates, but i will look it up).
