Völþreskóve

Völþreskóve is one of the four provinces of Dogger, in the Seafaring Confederation. It covers the northeastern coast and parts of the centre of the island, and borders all three other provinces. It was formed by the Dogric provincial reforms of 1978 through the amalgamation of, in one case parts of, thirteen former federal entities.

The capital of Völþreskóve is Grönnkrístvís.

History
Völþreskóve was formed in 1978 out of parts of thirteen federal entities. These were, in no particular order, Freyjevolden, Lochsteðer, Höjvolden, Níðvolden, Almlönð, Ínnavarghyvud, Utívarghyvud, Kvere, Sternerbjerg, Ræverníð, Vesturhjálm, Ásturhjálm, and most of Norðurdynerne.

Geography
Völþreskóve stretches along most of the east coast of the island of Dogger and contains a large diversity of landscapes.

Large parts of the southern, northern, and western reaches of the province are characterised by dunes and forests, including the largest continuous forested area of the country, namely the Höjvolden og Níðvolden Forest. The central part of the province, however, is characterised by two wide river valleys, separated from one another by the moor-covered Ryggråð.

Water
Völþreskóve contains, at least partially, four large lakes within its borders: Lilloch, Grætloch, Gråisvåtten and Röðvåtten.

Lilloch and Grætloch are located in the Lochsteðer region and connected to one another by the Lochalm river. Grætloch is also connected to the sea by the smaller Marlå river.

Running from the Gråisvåtten to the sea is the Kvjelt river, which, upon draining into the North Sea, forms Dogger's second largest river delta in area. Only about twenty kilometres to the north, the Röðå, which originates from the Röðvåtten, forms the island's fourth largest river delta.

Districts and municipalities
Völþreskóve is divided into fourteen districts and 97 municipalities. The districts form an additional administrative layer between the municipalities and the province that is unique to Völþreskóve.
