The world's largest island. Greenland is located in northeastern North America. The Atlantic Ocean and Iceland lie to Greenland's southeast; the Greenland Sea to the east; the Arctic Ocean to the north; Baffin Bay and Canada to the west. Nordost Rundingen, Greenland is the most easterly point of land in North America. And Kaffeklubben Island, Greenland is the most northerly point of land on earth. Greenlanders are mainly the descendants of Inuit and Danes. The official languages of Greenland are Greenlandic and Danish. Altough still a territory of Denmark, Greenland hopes to achieve independence within a couple of decades. The capital of Greenland is Nuuk.
