Greenlandic culture is fascinating, and the language is just one part of it. I wrote about it a while back; among the most interesting parts:
- Due to limited internet connectivity, Greenland doesn’t rely on net neutrality, allowing uses like education and telemedicine to take precedent on the country’s shaky DSL connections.
- The first movie filmed exclusively in Greenland only came out in 1998.
- A hit album in Greenland generally sells about 5,000 copies—which is roughly one copy for every 12 people. Only one album in the U.S., Thriller, has sold a proportional amount.
- A rock band played a big role in Greenland’s eventual autonomy from Denmark.
