Oldenburg and Delmenhorst were two counties in the present [[Niedersachsen]]. The Counts of Oldenburg became Kings of Denmark in 1448, Dukes of Schleswig and Holstein. The historical arms of Oldenburg are or were also part of the Royal Arms of [[Denmark]], Norway and [[Greece]], as the Royal Families of the latter two countries also descended from the Counts of Oldenburg (through Denmark). | Oldenburg and Delmenhorst were two counties in the present [[Niedersachsen]].
