Iceland
Iceland is a Nordic island country positioned between the North Atlantic and Arctic Oceans, lying on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge between North America and Europe. Reykjavík is the capital and largest city, housing about a third of the roughly 390,000 residents. Iceland is noted for its volcanic landscape, hot springs, geysers, and glaciers.
The country’s official language is Icelandic. Iceland was one of the world’s last habitable places to be settled permanently, mainly by Norsemen in the 9th century. It is a parliamentary republic, highly developed, and consistently ranks highly for quality of life, literacy, and gender equality.
