Iceland though has probably the most perks, the least crime rate, and some of the greatest history. Iceland is located Northwest of the United States in the Atlantic Ocean. Total land area is 103,440 square kilometers, but only 90,000 is ice free land area. Only a little over 1% of Iceland is arable.

Some of the main roles of environmental operations of Iceland are politics, military, and the economy; by breaking down each role independently and how each role works together shows how Iceland became its own country.

Each of these was impacted in some way or another by the Vikings. In the 860s, a Norwegian Viking named Naddod is said to have discovered the land now known as Iceland along with two others, Gardar Svavarsson the Swede and Floki Vilgerdason (Jones 273).

in the world. Europe contains the most peaceful country in the world: Iceland; and the Middle East has the least peaceful country: Syria. The reason for this dichotomy can most easily be explained by the economic equalities in their relative populations.

Fin whales populations off Iceland appear to be increasing at 4% per year, and minke populations off both Iceland and Norway appear to be stable, though it should be noted that the IWC indicates that fin whale populations in the northeast Atlantic haven’t been thoroughly assessed (Borchers et al. 2009, Vikingsson et al. 2009). The Marine Research Institute of Iceland has calculated that up to 150 fin whales and 400 minke whales can be sustainably
