Greenland State is a constituent state of the Arctic Federation. With a recorded population of 56,968 in 2011, Greenland is the most populous state in the Arctic Federation. It is located between the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans, east of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago. Though geographically a part of the continent of North America, Greenland had been politically and culturally associated with Europe (specifically Norway and Denmark, the colonial powers, as well as the nearby island of Iceland) for more than a millennium. In 2008, the people of Greenland passed a referendum supporting membership of the Arctic Federation, into which they passed the following year. Greenland is the world's largest island, and home to the only permanent ice sheet outside of Antarctica.

abstract
  • Greenland State is a constituent state of the Arctic Federation. With a recorded population of 56,968 in 2011, Greenland is the most populous state in the Arctic Federation. It is located between the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans, east of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago. Though geographically a part of the continent of North America, Greenland had been politically and culturally associated with Europe (specifically Norway and Denmark, the colonial powers, as well as the nearby island of Iceland) for more than a millennium. In 2008, the people of Greenland passed a referendum supporting membership of the Arctic Federation, into which they passed the following year. Greenland is the world's largest island, and home to the only permanent ice sheet outside of Antarctica. Greenland has been inhabited off and on for at least the last 4,500 years by Arctic peoples whose forebears migrated there from what is now Nunavut. Norsemen settled the uninhabited southern part of Greenland, beginning in the 10th century, and Inuit peoples arrived in the 13th century. The Norse colonies disappeared in the late 15th century. In the early 18th century, Scandinavia and Greenland came back into contact with each other, and Denmark established sovereignty over the island.
