Greenland (kwa Kiswahili Grinilandi pia; kwa Kikalaallisut: Kalaallit Nunaat = Nchi ya Wagreenland) ni nchi ya kujitawala chini ya ufalme wa Denmark lakini haihesabiwi kuwa sehemu ya Denmark yenyewe.
Eneo la Greenland ni kubwa, lakini idadi ya wakazi ni ndogo sana kwa sababu sehemu kubwa ya nchi (75%) imefunikwa na ganda nene la barafu.
Jina
[hariri | hariri chanzo]Jina la Kiswahili limetokana na lile la Kiingereza "Greenland", ambalo ni tafsiri ya jina la Kidenmark "Grønland", linalomaanisha "nchi yenye rangi ya majani mabichi".
Jina hilo Greenland lilitungwa miaka 1000 iliyopita, kwa sababu wakati ule hali ya hewa duniani ilikuwa na joto zaidi, na hapakuwa na barafu nyingi kama leo.
Jiografia
[hariri | hariri chanzo]Kijiografia Greenland, kisiwa kikubwa kuliko vyote duniani, ni sehemu ya bamba la Amerika ya Kaskazini lakini kihistoria na kisiasa kwa karne kadhaa imekuwa na uhusiano wa karibu na Skandinavia (Ulaya ya Kaskazini).
Mlima wa juu wa Greenland ni Mlima Gunnbjørn (m 3,694 juu ya UB) katika Watkins Range.

Mji mkuu ni Godthaab inayoitwa Nuuk (17,000).
Watu
[hariri | hariri chanzo]Wananchi wengi (89.5%) ni wakazi asilia wenye asili ya Asia, ingawa wengi wao wana pia damu ya Kizungu kwa asilimia 25. Lugha yao ndiyo lugha rasmi pekee tangu mwaka 2009. 8.6% ni Wazungu wenye asili ya Skandinavia na wanaongea Kidenmark ambacho kinaendelea kutumiwa na wote katika nafasi kadhaa. Wakazi wengi wanaweza kuongea lugha zote mbili.
Upande wa dini, walio wengi ni Wakristo (96.1%), hasa Walutheri (85%).
Greenland inaongoza duniani kwa asilimia ya watu wanaojiua, pamoja na kuwa na idadi kubwa ya walevi.
