On March 23, 1948, the Faeroes turned officially from a “Danish state” to a “self-rule community under the Reign of Denmark”.

Denmark was nonetheless always present with an annual financial contribution.

This autonomy seemed to prelude to a complete independence, also thanks to the improvement of life’s tenor in the Islands, especially in the 80s. However, the abrupt decrease of fishing activities in the North Atlantic (from 1990 to 1994, fish products went from 150m tons to 110m, notwithstanding the high technologies employed by the fleets of fishing boats), lead the Faeroes to an unexpected crises, with a consequent worsening of life’s tenor and an intensification of unemployment, reaching 20% in Torshavn and even more on other Islands.

The Faeroese Bank had then to rely increasingly to the Danish financial help, so that the Islands went back, actually, to a state of colony, although with an austere autonomous program of control over the economy.

After 1995, the situation seemed to improve, but, at this point, we are arrived to modern days.
