Kalaallit Nunaat, Greenland, a country with a rich culture, that for a long time was a European colony, initially under Norwegian control from the 13th century and then under Danish rule from 1814. Isolated for centuries, a growing sense of national identity and a desire for self-determination emerged in Greenland in the 20th century. This movement led to a decolonisation process, marked in 1979 by the attainment of the status of an autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark. However, this incomplete decolonisation led to upheavals in traditional Greenlandic ways of life and caused various social problems. Despite these challenges, Greenland has continued to move toward greater autonomy, particularly with the 2008 referendum that granted Greenland greater control over its natural resources and its judiciary.
Today, the image of Greenland is that of a country striving for complete independence. Yet history appears to be repeating itself with the US government's stated intention to purchase Greenland—a proposal that was met with outrage and rejection in both Greenland and Denmark. No country, no culture, and no way of life should be treated as a commodity.
