Greenland, also called Kalaallit Nunaat, is the largest island in the world. 80% of the island is covered in ice year-round, though, leaving only the coasts habitable. On these coasts, which teem with wildlife, a vibrant culture has emerged. Greenland is officially part of the Kingdom of Denmark, but it is governed by its own Parliament and has some degree of independence. For centuries, the island has faced constant pressure, as climate change, political dealings, and global technology affects the edge of the Arctic.
