“It was late at night. She came running into my room crying.

Here’s a look at various elements of Greenland’s remarkable circumstances:Greenland is vital to the world, though much of the world may not realize it.
its strategic location in the Arctic; its valuable rare earth minerals trapped under the ice needed for telecommunications; its billions of barrels of untapped oil. There’s also potential for shipping and trade routes as the ice that covers most of Greenland keeps retreating because of climate change. If that ice melts, it would reshape coastlines across the globe and potentially shift weather patterns.Greenland is massive — about one-fifth the size of the United States or three times the size of Texas. Its land mass is part of North America, and its capital city is closer to New York than to Copenhagen.
