ICELAND

Iceland is the most sparsely populated country

in Europe with an average of about three

inhabitants per square km. Almost four-fifths

of the country are uninhabited and mostly

uninhabitable, the population being concentrated

in a narrow coastal belt, valleys and the

southwest corner of the country.

Iceland's population is around 313.000, 2/3 of them

live in the capital, Reykjavik, and surrounding areas.

Iceland is a progressive modern European society

with a high standard of living and a high level

of technology and education.

Iceland is an island 103,000 kmz in the middle of the

North Atlantic Ocean between Greenland & Europe.

Iceland is unique due to it's geothermal activities,

like volcanos and hot springs which

supply the country with electricity and hot water

for heating.
