What island is Northern Europe?

Greenland is the largest island in the world. Located in the northeast of North America. About four-fifths of the islands are in the Arctic Circle. The coastline is 44,000 kilometers long. The annual average temperature is below 0℃, and the lowest temperature can reach -70℃. We don't know when the indigenous people of Greenland came here and why they chose such a desolate place to live. When Icelandic colonists came here in 982, they found it uninhabited. At the southernmost tip of the island, Icelanders established three strongholds, which they persisted in for the next few centuries. The name Greenland is exactly what these Scandinavians chose. According to the Nordic epic sagar, Eriksson with red beard was exiled to Iceland for murder. The Eriksson family and their slaves sailed northwest to explore the legendary land. When he settled on the island, he named it Greenland (meaning "green land") to attract more immigrants. At least the fjord at the southern end of the island is still green. His brilliant plan succeeded, and Nordic immigrants could live in harmony with the new Inuit. /kloc-in the 0/2nd century, a Catholic parish was even established in Greenland. 1386, Greenland officially belonged to Norway. At that time, Norway was a member of the Kalmar Federation of the three Nordic countries, so after the disintegration of the Federation, Greenland was transferred to the Danish-Norwegian monarchy. After more than 500 years of persistence, Nordic settlements suddenly disappeared in the15th century, probably due to the general food shortage caused by the Little Ice Age. Later, the remains of residents in this period all showed malnutrition. 18 14, Denmark recovered the sovereignty of Greenland according to the Kiel Treaty. In the 1920s, after gaining independence from Denmark, Norway occupied the then uninhabited eastern Greenland, claiming that it was ownerless and claimed sovereignty over it. 1933, Denmark and Norway agreed to submit this dispute to the International Court of Justice for arbitration under the League of Nations. According to the arbitration result, Denmark gained the sovereignty of the whole Greenland. On the early maps, Greenland was also marked with the name of Gruntland (meaning Land of the Earth). It is not known whether Grunt is a green falsetto or a green falsetto. During World War II, the connection between Greenland and Denmark was cut off because Nazi Germany occupied Denmark on April 9, 1940. Greenland successfully traded with the United States and Canada by mining cryolite mine in Wiegert, Iraq, and obtained necessary commodities. This situation continued until the end of the war. The climate of the North Atlantic is deeply influenced by the ocean currents along the northeast coast of Greenland. Therefore, small-scale battles also took place in this area during World War II. 1943, a Danish soldier was killed in this area, and a year later, a German soldier was also killed there.
