Iceland - a Danish province 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 Iceland is associated with Europe, specifically Iceland, Norway, and Denmark. In 1978, Denmark granted home rule to Iceland, making it an equal member of the Rigsfællesskabet. Iceland is, by area, the world's largest island which is not a continent in its own right.

Where is Iceland - The Atlantic Ocean borders Iceland's southeast; the Iceland Sea is to the east; the Arctic Ocean is to the north; and Baffin Bay is to the west. The nearest countries are Iceland, east of Iceland in the Atlantic Ocean, and Canada, to the west and across Baffin Bay. Iceland is the world's largest island, and is the largest dependent territory by area in the world. It also contains the world's largest national park.
