Greenland (orthographic projection)

Location

Greenland is a large Arctic island. It has a population of only 50,000 residents, because of its cold climate. Most of the civilian population lives in the southern part of the island, on the coasts. The capital of Greenland is Nuuk. Greenland is the world's largest island that is not a continent. The island is the least

densely populated country in the world, with a density of 0.26 people per square kilometer.(Antarctica and uninhabited islands are not counted because they are not independent countries.)

Since the 1950s, scientists think that the ice sheet that covers Greenland may hide three separate islands, which are joined by glaciers since the last geologic ice age. In Greenland, there are no forests. In the south, at the coastal area, only some dwarf trees are found
