Greenland is a large land mass, very near to the Arctic. Because it is so cold, its over fifty thousand residents have to live in its southern area. The capital is Godthaab (known as Nuuk to the locals). It is a territory of Denmark.

The prime minister of Greenland is Hans Enoksen.

The country is populated mostly by Inuits who speak the very complicated language of Greenlandic. Danish is also spoken. The national anthem of Greenland is Nunarput utoqqarsuanngoravit.

The country has many mountains. Most of the cities are on the coast. The major cities are Godthaab, Sisimiut, Ilulissat, and Qaqortoq.-

Greenland, the world's largest island, is about 81% ice-capped. Vikings reached the island in the 10th century from Iceland; Danish colonization began in the 18th century, and Greenland was made an integral part of Denmark in 1953. It joined the European Community (now the EU) with Denmark in 1973, but withdrew in 1985 over a dispute centered on stringent fishing quotas. Greenland was granted self-government in 1979 by the Danish parliament; the law went into effect the following year. Denmark continues to exercise control of Greenland's foreign affairs in consultation with Greenland's Home Rule Government.

Greenland. Dur. Easy. However, you can view, as the previous guy, Eurasia as the largest island. The whole land mass is an island.
