Contributions to the history of Danish monarchic ideology at the end of Middle AgesBased on previous geographical confusions in Norman and Danish historiography in the 11th-12th centuries, the official creation of "Northern Dacia" pertains to the Roman Church, specifically to Pope Paschal II, simultaneously with the elevation in archbishopric of the siege of Lund, "metropolis Dacie", in 1103/1104. By transforming Denmark in a "regnum Dacie", we argue, the Roman Church "provincialized" it as a part of the new Christian Roman Empire of the Church, in the same way ancient Dacia was a province of the classical Roman Empire. From then on, "Dacia" in a restricted sense designates from the Danish kingdom, while it regards in an extended meaning the Church province of Scandinavia. The crisis of this medieval political and ecclesiastical terminology is thereafter put under closer scrutiny, starting with the making of the Union of Kalmar in 1397 and Eric VII's reign.

International audience ; The article deals with the role played by the horse in connecting various medieval civilizations by examining the paradigmatic period of the Mongol conquest, seen as the accelerator of the 13th century "globalization". Starting with the role of the horse in the pastoral economy of the Eurasian steppes, the article examines the reasons that enabled the Mongols to transform this natural resource into a source of economic, military and political power in order to create the biggest land empire in history. The examination of several documents from the period allows us to infer the existence of a "horse policy" in Genghis Khan's codification. On this basis, we are able to circumscribe the function of the horse in the Mongol imperial ideology: it was seen as the vehicle of an unstoppable conquest as well as of a revelation destined to make the Great Khan and his descendants the masters of the world.
