Icelandic_Topography

= Icelandic Topography! =

Iceland is located in the North Atlantic Ocean just south of the [|Arctic Circle], which passes through the small island of [|Grímsey] off Iceland's northern coast, but not through mainland Iceland. Unlike neighbouring [|Greenland], Iceland is considered to be a part of Europe, not of [|North America], though geologically the island is not part of either of the continental plates. Because of cultural, economic and linguistic similarities, Iceland in many contexts is also included in [|Scandinavia] making it a Nordic country. The closest bodies of land are Greenland (287 km) and the [|Faroe Islands] (420 km). The closest distance to the mainland of Europe is 970 km (to Norway).
