A bit about the country

General

Greenland is the largest island on the planet, but it is inhabited by only 55 thousand people, since almost all of its vast territory is covered with ice. This climatic feature forces local residents to organize their life, which has many differences from the rest of Europe and Denmark, of which the island is part.
