Greenland
Greenland is a vast island located in the North Atlantic and the Arctic, politically and culturally associated with Denmark, but with a high degree of autonomy. It is the world's largest island not part of a continent. The capital is Nuuk, a small city that blends modern and traditional elements. Greenlandic culture is deeply rooted in Inuit traditions, with a strong connection to the land and sea, evident in hunting, fishing, and handicrafts. Greenland's economy is based on fishing, particularly shrimp and halibut, and tourism, with growing interest in mineral exploration. Greenland is known for its spectacular landscapes, which include massive glaciers, deep fjords, and unique wildlife such as polar bears and whales. Despite its inhospitable environment, Greenland has a resilient population that has adapted its lifestyle to the extreme Arctic conditions.
