【答案】 Greenland (Kalaallisut:Kalaallit Nunaat,meaning Land of the Greenlanders; Danish:Grønland) is a member country of the Kingdom of Denmark located between the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans,east of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago.Though physiographically and ethnically an Arctic island country and geographically a part of the continent of North America,politically and historically Greenland is associated with Europe,specifically Iceland,Norway,and Denmark.In 1979,Denmark granted home rule to Greenland,with a relationship described by the Rigsfællesskabet,and in 2008 Greenland voted to become a separate country within the Kingdom of Denmark,effective June 2009.Greenland is,by area,the world's largest island that is not a continent in its own right.
In prehistoric times Greenland was home to a number of Paleo-Eskimo cultures.From AD 986,it was colonised by Icelanders in two settlements on fjords near the southwesternmost tip of the island.[4] The settlements,such as Brattahlid,thrived for centuries but disappeared sometime in the 1400s,at the time of one given date for the outbreak of the Little Ice Age.[5]
Data from ice cores indicate that between AD 800 and 1300 the regions around the fjords of southern Greenland experienced a mild climate,with trees and herbaceous plants growing and livestock being farmed.[citation needed]
These Icelandic settlements vanished during the 14th and 15th centuries,likely due to famine and increasing conflicts with the Inuit.[6] The condition of human bones from this period indicates that the Norse population was malnourished,probably because of soil erosion resulting from the Norsemen's destruction of natural vegetation to allow for farming,turf-cutting,and wood-cutting,because of a decline in temperatures during the Little Ice Age,and because of armed conflicts with the Inuit.[5] Jared Diamond suggests that cultural practices,such as rejecting fish as a source of food and relying solely on livestock ill-adapted to Greenland's (degrading) climate resulted in recurring famine which led to abandonment of the colony.[5] However,isotope analysis of the bones of inhabitants shows that marine food sources supplied more and more of the diet of the Norse Greenlanders,making up between 50% and 80% of their diet by the 1300s.[7] There is little evidence that they hunted seals or other sea mammals for food,as was common practise amongst their Inuit neighbours.
The last written records of the Norse Greenlanders are of a marriage in 1408 in the church of Hvalsey — today the best-preserved Norse ruins in Greenland.In the 16th century Greenland was visited by Corte-Real and according to the Treaty of Tordesillas part of the Portuguese area of influence.It is possible that some Portuguese settlements were created there in that period,as attested in some maps.[8]
Norway occupied and claimed parts of the then-uninhabited eastern Greenland (also called Erik the Red's Land) in July 1931,claiming that it constituted Terra nullius.Norway and Denmark agreed to submit the matter in 1933 to the Permanent Court of International Justice,which decided against Norway.
Greenland's connection to Denmark was severed on April 9,1940,when,early in World War II,Denmark was occupied by Germany.Greenland was able to buy goods from the United States and Canada by selling cryolite from the mine in Ivittuut.During this war,the system of government changed:Governor Eske Brun ruled the island under a law of 1925 that allowed governors to take control under extreme circumstances; Governor Aksel Svane was transferred to the US to lead the commission to supply Greenland.A sledge patrol (in 1942,named the Sirius Patrol),guarding the northeastern shores of Greenland using dog sleds,detected and alerted American troops who then destroyed several German weather stations,giving Denmark a better position in the postwar turmoil.
Greenland had been a protected and very isolated society until 1940.The Danish government,which governed Greenland as its colony,had been convinced that the society would face exploitation from the outside world or even extinction if the country was opened up.But wartime Greenland developed a sense of self-reliance through self-government and independent communication with the outside world.
However,a commission in 1946 (with the highest Greenlandic council,the Landsrådene,as a participant) recommended patience and no radical reformation of the system.Two years later,the first step towards changing the government was initiated when a grand commission was established.A final report (G-50) was presented in 1950:Greenland was to be a modern welfare state with Denmark as sponsor and example.In 1953,Greenland was made an equal part of the Danish Kingdom.Home rule was granted in 1979
