Vendsyssel Region, Jylland

The entire island shown above is referred to as Nørrejyske Ø. However, that name is rarely used. Instead, people typically refer to its three parts:
a. Thy (western end)
b. Hanherred (middle isthmus)
c. Vendsyssel (eastern section to the East of the town of Brovst, represented by the yellow area shown below)
