The Faroe Islands (Faroese: Føroyar, Danish: Færøerne) are an island group situated between the Norwegian Sea and the North Atlantic Ocean, approximately halfway between Great Britain and Iceland. The Faroe Islands are a constituent country of the Kingdom of Denmark, along with Denmark proper and Greenland.

The Faroe Islands have been an autonomous province of the Kingdom of Denmark since 1948. Over the years, the Faroese have been granted control of most matters. Some areas still remain the responsibility of Denmark, such as military defence and foreign affairs.

The Faroe Islands were politically associated with Denmark in 1380, when Norway entered the Kalmar Union with Denmark and Sweden, which gradually evolved into Danish control of the islands, but this association ceased in 1814. The Faroe Islands have two representatives on the Nordic Council, as members of the Danish delegation.

A. The Faroe Island mice populations are not usually considered full separate species, but usually designated as subspecies of the Western European house mouse (Mus domesticus). There is the Nolsoy house mouse (Mus domesticus faroeensis), the Mykines house mouse (Mus domesticus mykinessiensis), and the now extinct St Kilda house mouse (Mus domesticus muralis). There were also records from the 17th century of the wood mouse (Apodemus sylvaticus), but these have not been seen since and may have been a misidentification.
