Region Syddanmark (English: Region South Denmark) is a future administrative region created under the Danish Municipal Reform, which replaces the traditional counties ("amter") with five larger regions. At the same time, smaller municipalities will be merged into larger units, cutting the number of municipalities from 271 to 98. The reform will be implemented in Denmark on 1 January 2007. The merger of the Funish municipalities of Ærøskøbing and Marstal was implemented on January 1, 2006, one year before the main reform.
