Former dependencies and homelands

The so-called Greater Norway includes these entities:

Dependencies ceded to Scotland (1st phase)

Vassals

National homelands ceded to Sweden (2nd phase)

Early entity

Dependencies ceded to Denmark (3rd phase)

The actual time of cession of the islands is somewhat disputed. Some claim it took place with the Union of Denmark and Norway in 1536/37, as the possessions of the Norwegian crown were claimed by the Oldenburg king. Nevertheless, they were still referred to as "dependencies of Norway" in later official documents. Also the Treaty of Kiel states: "...and provinces, constituting the kingdom of Norway, [..], together with their dependencies (Greenland, the Faroe Isles, and Iceland, excepted); [...] shall belong in full and sovereign property to the King of Sweden,...", clearly indicating that they were until 1814 regarded as a part of Norway.
