Iceland
Iceland ( is, Ísland; ) is a Nordic island country in the North Atlantic Ocean and in the Arctic Ocean. Iceland is the most sparsely populated country in Europe. Iceland's capital and largest city is Reykjavík, which (along with its surrounding areas) is home to over 65% of the population.

Body contact is permitted for the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
