The purest white country

In today's Europe, the countries with the highest proportion of whites are mainly concentrated in Northern Europe and Central Europe, such as Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, Iceland, Czech Republic, Slovakia and Poland. Iceland is the purest white country.

However, in 20 15, Nordic countries accepted a large number of immigrants from the Middle East, which seriously impacted the local white society. At present, Norway, Sweden and Denmark have a large number of Middle Eastern immigrants.

At present, only Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia and Iceland have not accepted immigrants on a large scale. However, Iceland, located in the far northwest of Europe, has a very single ethnic composition because of its remote geographical location and island country. Almost all Icelanders are descendants of Nordic Germans, and Northern Europe is a country with a relatively single ethnic composition in the world today.

The geographical environment of Iceland

Iceland is located in the middle of the North Atlantic, between Greenland and Britain, bordering the Greenland Sea in the north, Greenland in the northwest across the Danish Strait, and the Norwegian Sea in the northeast.

1 1.6% of Iceland is covered by glaciers, and three quarters of the country is at an altitude of 400-800 meters. The whole Iceland is a bowl-shaped highland, surrounded by coastal mountains and with a plateau in the middle. Most of them are platforms, and the height of the platforms is between 400 and 800 meters. Individual peaks can reach1300-1700m. The highest mountain in Iceland is Mount Henuk in Huanadar (2 1 19 meters).

Iceland has a cold temperate maritime climate with changeable climate. Due to the influence of the North Atlantic warm current, the temperature is milder than other areas at the same latitude.
