Dlaczego GRENLANDIA należy do Danii? ◀🌎 A co z Anglią, Holandią, Norwegią i Szwecją?

If we look at a map of Europe, we'll see that Denmark is a truly small country, smaller than Lithuania, Latvia, Slovakia, and even Estonia. Yet, strangely enough, Greenland belongs to the Kingdom of Denmark—which is 50 times larger than the European part of that country. But how exactly did Greenland become Danish? Is it connected to Viking expeditions—or perhaps a more recent wave of colonization? And why was it Denmark that managed to seize this vast island—when it so nearly fell into the hands of Norway, England, the Netherlands, and even Sweden? #greenland #history #denmark HERE'S THE FULL PLAYLIST - all episodes about Greenland:    • GRENLANDIA ◀🌎 Kto zasiedlił Grenlandię? Wi...   And here's the episode about Nansen and his expedition to Greenland from the Świat Wciaga channel:    • NANSEN: GRENLANDIA bez odwrotu ◀🌎 Niesamow...   ----- ❤️ PATRONITE If you like what I create - and enjoy listening to engaging stories - I invite you to join my Patrons: https://patronite.pl/swiatwciaga ☕ PAYPAL and BUYCOFFEE Alternatively - you can also use PayPal: https://wojciechpiestrak.pl/paypal/ or place a bet Get me a quick virtual coffee at BuyCoffee without creating an account: https://buycoffee.to/swiatwciaga ----- TABLE OF CONTENTS: 00:00 Intro 01:32 The Fall of the Norse Settlements 03:28 Pining and Pothorst 08:50 Martin Frobisher 12:16 John Davis 14:44 The Expeditions of Christian IV 17:59 The Dutch 20:22 Hans Egede 25:42 The Mission 31:49 The Rise and Fall of Colonies 36:26 From Severin to KGH 44:24 The Napoleonic Wars and the Treaty of Cologne --- MUSIC: All songs below are available under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 License. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...
