I love the mystery and vast beauty of the Arctic. This is the safest place to live if there was ever to be any worldwide civil unrest. It’s amazing that the Inuit thrived and spread so far to so many remote areas in harsh conditions.

I'd give just about anything to imigrate to Nuuk. It looks like a place where I'd find pure happiness in my life. I'm fascinated by Greenland. Much love from Michigan, USA.
If I ever immigrated to Greenland I'd leave my old life behind. I'd try to be accepted in their culture despite not being one of their own. I'd learn the Greenlandic language and follow their beliefs. I have so much respect for the people of Greenland, I hope to find happiness in one day living there.
Sure about that? It's got the highest suicide rate in the world, the entire Summer is light & the Winter is dark & Greenland is completely isolated from the rest of the world. The rates of alcoholism & abuse are astronomical. They have nearly no contact with people outside their community.
LIFE IN GREENLAND WOULD BE ABOUT THE SAME AS LIVING ON THE MOON. ANOTHER THING TO CONSIDER IS THAT ABOUT ALL YOU CAN EAT IS FISH. AND THE COST OF LIVING IS HIGHER THAN ANY PLACE IN THE WORLD. THE ONLY REASON GREENLAND ISN'T LISTED AMONG THE 25 MOST EXPENSIVE PLACES TO LIVE IS BECAUSE NOBODY IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD EVER WANT TO LIVE THERE.
They are children, why would there need to be some any kind of rational thinking behind it? I certainly didn't at that age, you simply hear a word and you want to use.
Why don’t they use the mother tongue or L 1 (Inuit in this case) as médium of instruction in the lower grades? The system can transition to Danish (L 2) and English (L 3) in the later grades
This is a very fascinating video about Greenland . here in Canada the majority of Canadians are very ignorant when it comes to native culture that’s to say aboriginal people.
0:52: This mountain is called Hjortetakken (The Deer Antler in Danish. BUT! In Greenlandic, it is called Ivianngersuit, and THAT means The Giant Breasts)!! :-D
Ujuani68 is correct. Watching Hjortetakken / Ivianngersuit from a certain angle in town the mountain does resemble an woman lying down with an uneven bosom. 😂
@@ndcrd703 well Greenland has a population of a small town and Is one of the biggest countries in the world.i didn't know it had a city and a prison etc either
@@ndcrd703 well I actually did know but only until fairly recently! It has such a small population I assumed they would be more spread out in just tiny fishing villages.
Very interesting documentary! To be honest, I don't think the city looks that depressive at all (apart from maybe the older apartment blocks), at least from an architectural perspective. Nuuk has some nice Scandinavian-style architecture in many places, which looks a LOT better than most dwellings in Northern Canada or Alaska where the houses often look like cheap shacks with above-ground electricity poles in comparison.
What kind of class room allows kids to walk around, throw things, and talk out loud to each other during the class? We had to sit still at our desks, ask permission to speak, and wore uniforms. Everyone is talking and laughing so of course there is no order or much learning - it looks like they are just goofing off.
It must be super challenging to be a teacher there. It looks like one if those movies you watch about a teacher trying to reach students from an inner city school in some bankrupt city with low-income families and no support at home from the parents. You really gotta be super tough to deal with that every day.
j2zel this video so not shows how actual Greenlandic people act. Or, at least how he youth of Greenland acts. I am from Greenland and the teachers are so fucking lazy here it’s crazy. I love Greenland but damn my school teachers were so damn unmotivated and lazy
Greenland (/ˈɡriːnlənd/; Greenlandic: Kalaallit Nunaat, pronounced [kalaːɬit nunaːt]; Danish: Grønland, pronounced [ˈɡʁɶnˌlanˀ]) is an autonomous constituent country within the Kingdom of Denmark between the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans, east of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago. Though physiographically a part of the continent of North America, Greenland has been politically and culturally associated with Europe (specifically Norway and Denmark, the colonial powers, as well as the nearby island of Iceland) for more than a millennium.[9] The majority of its residents are Inuit, whose ancestors began migrating from the Canadian mainland in the 13th century, gradually settling across the island. Greenland is the world's largest island (Australia, although larger, is generally considered to be a continental landmass rather than an island).[10] Three-quarters of Greenland is covered by the only permanent ice sheet outside Antarctica. With a population of about 56,480[6] (2013), it is the least densely populated country in the world.[11] About a third of the population live in Nuuk, the capital and largest city. The Arctic Umiaq Line ferry acts as a lifeline for western Greenland, connecting the various cities and settlements. Greenland has been inhabited off and on for at least the last 4,500 years by Arctic peoples whose forebears migrated there from what is now Canada.[12][13] Norsemen settled the uninhabited southern part of Greenland beginning in the 10th century, and Inuit peoples arrived in the 13th century. The Norse colonies disappeared in the late 15th century. Soon after their demise, beginning in 1499, the Portuguese briefly explored and claimed the island, naming it Terra do Lavrador (later applied to Labrador in Canada).[14] In the early 18th century, Scandinavian explorers reached Greenland again. To strengthen trading and power, Denmark-Norway affirmed sovereignty over the island. Denmark-Norway claimed Greenland for centuries. Greenland was settled by Vikings (of Norwegian origin) more than a thousand years ago, who had previously settled Iceland to escape persecution from the King of Norway and his central government. Vikings set sail from Greenland and Iceland, with Leif Erikson becoming the first known European to reach North America nearly 500 years before Columbus reached the Caribbean islands. They attempted to colonize land. Though under continuous influence of Norway and Norwegians, Greenland was not formally under the Norwegian crown until 1262. The Kingdom of Norway was extensive and a military power until the mid-14th century. Norway was dramatically hit with a larger death toll than Denmark by the Black Death, forcing Norway to accept a union in which the central government, university and other fundamental institutions were located in Copenhagen. Thus, the two kingdoms' resources were directed at creating Copenhagen. Norway became the weaker part and lost sovereignty over Greenland in 1814 when the union was dissolved. Greenland became a Danish colony in 1814, and was made a part of the Danish Realm in 1953 under the Constitution of Denmark. In 1973, Greenland joined the European Economic Community with Denmark. However, in a referendum in 1982, a majority of the population voted for Greenland to withdraw from the EEC which was effected in 1985. Greenland contains the world's largest and most northernly national park, Northeast Greenland National Park (Kalaallit Nunaanni nuna eqqissisimatitaq). Established in 1974 and expanded to its present size in 1988, it protects 972,001 square kilometres (375,292 sq mi) of the interior and northeastern coast of Greenland and is bigger than all but twenty-nine countries in the world. Greenland is divided into four municipalities - Sermersooq, Kujalleq, Qaasuitsup, and Qeqqata. In 1979, Denmark had granted home rule to Greenland, and in 2008, Greenlanders voted in favour of the Self-Government Act, which transferred more power from the Danish government to the local Greenlandic government. Under the new structure, in effect since 21 June 2009,[15] Greenland can gradually assume responsibility for policing, judicial system, company law, accounting, and auditing; mineral resource activities; aviation; law of legal capacity, family law and succession law; aliens and border controls; the working environment; and financial regulation and supervision, while the Danish government retains control of foreign affairs and defence. It also retains control of monetary policy, providing an initial annual subsidy of DKK 3.4 billion, which is planned to diminish gradually over time. Greenland expects to grow its economy based on increased income from the extraction of natural resources. The capital, Nuuk, held the 2016 Arctic Winter Games. At 70%, Greenland has one of the highest shares of renewable energy in the world, mostly coming from hydropower.[16][additional citation needed]
Miké is really talented and cool guy. 😍 And also big bravo to Louise. She is really exceptional woman. It takes a lot of patience and compassion to work with abused children with the label „Problematic“.
actually not so similar, also all first nations (including celts) have drums of some type. The Bodhràn (correct spelling) specifically is thought to be originally north African or middle eastern believe it or not !
One thing I noticed. The person who edited this and the one who took the film have a thing about doing their outdoor shoots while the weather is "cloomy"
So what do Muslims do there if Ramadan occurs during the continual daylight period? Do they not eat at all? And if Ramadan occurs when it's dark throughout, they don't have to fast at all?
There's only one Muslim there lol, there's a whole article about him. He has a restaurant there. Some years he has to fast for 21-22 hours a day, with only 2-3 hours to eat and drink water. But some years it's the opposite!
If you bring your own dirt, build a big greenhouse, heat it with geothermal then YES, you could probably become the richest person in Greenland no matter what you decide to grow there, even if it's just onions because it seems like everything over there costs a flat rate of 35 Euros whether it's a bag of onions or a box of cereal.
The warmest it gets there is like 50-60 degrees farenheight in the warmest part of summer (Idk what that is in celcius but you can put that in google and get an immediate answer). I think an unusually hot day would be about 70. So yeah, you can't grow anything without a greenhouse unless you grow arctic plants. (There are berries that grow naturally in the Arctic, Inuits made tea out of them.)
@@ks5865 The .GL extension for Greenlandic websites might as well be Gulag Lite because the administrative climate there is very anti-business. You got a tax rate of up to 60% and 40% of the population works for the government! Plus you got unclear land-ownership laws, and not too many people speak English. I know one guy who went there for one week. He had been living in Iceland for 7 years (another needlessly expensive country. I've been there 2x) and everybody told him about how cold it is, so he bought the most expensive Antarctica-class clothes for his whole family and when they got there it was during a heat wave (early 90s) where the whole place stunk like garbage. I know, Iceland smells like farts when you get there (volcanic gases) but you get used to it after about an hour. The reason it stank so bad is because the locals usually just throw their garbage out the window, so you had all these chicken bones and whatnot all over the place. He said it was the worst vacation ever. All this that I just mentioned is the real reason you have no greenhouses in Greenland, or much of any other business, because it just SUCKS. I'm a free-market American living in Germany and I'm always looking for new and unusual opportunities, and that had been one of my ideas. Basically bring in a ship full of dirt and supplies and start growing onions or strawberries, another really easy crop to grow, and do it under the auspices of an S.E. corporation (Societee Europeenne) so as to pay a minimum of taxes, but I backed out of that idea after all the other people disparaged it, including an agricultural scientist, leaving me to fund the whole thing myself (and do all the work too). I even had a plane ticket and hotel reservation, but I ditched it at the last minute. Instead, I'm concentrating on a more interesting place: MALTA, where everyone speaks English, and there are no restrictions on me setting up a photovoltaic operation there. I wrote a short 70 page research proposal/paper on that and a guy who works for the Chamber of Commerce loved it.
En el sur de la isla, en el verano, hay granjas donde se cultivan cereales, hortalizas y se cria ganado. En esa parte el clima es mas benigno que en el resto de la isla. Lo que no se que pasa en el invierno en esos lugares.
espéro y no ser muy viejo para conocer un lugar como groenlandia, desde chico me siento atraido por la idea.. estoy harto de la maldita violencia de Mexico, los robos y la delincuencia... veo a Nuuk como una tierra prometida y tranquila donde me gustaria estar.. aunque sea unos minutos... pescar con mis hijos a los cuales amo y deseo que sean felices lejos de este lugar donde siempre tienes que estar atento a algun tipo de violencia, casi tanta como el terrorismo
I have an idea for a tv show that takes place in greenland a inuit gangsta youths have banded together .they are westernized from music and movies and the internet . They dont want to be fishermen or hunting for seals ,they love their culture and want to preserve it and their family gang to become rich and get their peice of the dream more daydreamed from movies than the actual reality .they are all highly trained warriors great stamina .tracking skills second to none .gave extensive knowledge of weapons and with the way they all have been raised to respect women but to be untrustful of men strangers in their quest to break bad they come up against the world with greenland being a halway point from north america and europe are in a position to smuggle anything from weapons to drugs to running these greenuuks are hard ,smart and hungry to bring the cake home no matter the danger or the job
Trevor Mcvety, this sounds more like an American fantasy than anything else. Extensive knowledge about weapons? 😂 Our young people are not required to sign up to serve in the Danish military although they can if they wish it. As for guns, only hunting rifles and shotguns are legal. Any other type of guns, handguns, uzis, grenades and what else Americans can’t seem to live with out is totally banned here. Only the police have handguns and the few times they have had to draw them, but not fired, has hit the front pages of our news papers. Here guns are tools same as a fishing hook. We don’t need them for protection from our neighbors. The idea of a bunch of young Greenlanders behaving like a bunch of hard-core American youth the way you describe is totally ridiculous.
I went to that USK school in 2017 and i have no idea who that Louise becouse my english teacher had black hair and was greenlandic and not danish and blonde
7:03 well, then maybe learn some Kalaallisut first, before going to Greenland to teach danish. Why was she hired by the school in the first place? This job should‘ve gone to someone bilingual.
@@JuliaFleischer95 It depends on the point of view, I live in Sicily, Italy, an island in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, here in the summer is extremely hot, we reached 47° degrees in a town called Catenanuova, and in the winter we don't go under 10° degrees.
@@lucacosta2175 that's bcuz it's a warmer climate 🙂 i meant that it's nothing compared to how cold it can get for some places in greenland n nuuk is far from the coldest
are you from Greenland? Some of the first Europeans to visit Greenland were ... the Portuguese !. Around the year 1500 they visited Greenland and made a very good map of its coastline: upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9c/Cantino_planisphere_%281502%29.jpg Don't eat too much seal that gets fat!
@@Lovebeingdivine I've heard Mongolian but our language sounds nothing like Mongolian. But if i remember correctly, our very far ancestors migrated from somewhere in asia (probably Mongolian) and arrived to Greenland hundreds or thousands of years later
Shure. Greenland IS Magnific. But,I understand Not, why that one micro-language, that danish,IS teached vainly, for Innuits.. Innuit and English,Is sufficient for All!
Well one morning about 4-5000 years ago we a small group left our relatives by heading northeast. Crossed the landbridge over to alaska, bit keep waliking east and years later we artived here and settled
Avid Bakhshi: According to legend it was the Norse Viking Eric the Red who gave Greenland it’s name. He arrived in the South Western part of Greenland which is very green and greener than the area he was familiar with in Iceland.
J Polysynthetic doesn't imply impractical to acquire. I can claim English is hard as well but people teaching in the United States all acquired English before. I didn't visit Greenland and am not instructing kids there so I am not required to learn Greenlandic before commenting anything.
I love the mystery and vast beauty of the Arctic. This is the safest place to live if there was ever to be any worldwide civil unrest. It’s amazing that the Inuit thrived and spread so far to so many remote areas in harsh conditions.
They know how to work hard and together...the rest of the world could learn something from them
There is a huge US base on Greenland.

They are children, why would there need to be some any kind of rational thinking behind it? I certainly didn't at that age, you simply hear a word and you want to use.
At least it is spelled correctly so she is doing good job
In my times you would get into trouble with teachers for a lot less than that!
funniest part is why would they show that on a documentary lmao
so fascinated by greenland, i will visit very soon.
Thanks for sharing. Amazing.
Great video thank you!
Excellent! And I thought Greenland was just the desolate frozen rock!
Wow, awesome video! 😍
Much much love to Greenland💕
Why don’t they use the mother tongue or L 1 (Inuit in this case) as médium of instruction in the lower grades? The system can transition to Danish (L 2) and English (L 3) in the later grades
Lack of Greenlandic teachers.
This is a very fascinating video about Greenland . here in Canada the majority of Canadians are very ignorant when it comes to native culture that’s to say aboriginal people.

Instead, I'm concentrating on a more interesting place: MALTA, where everyone speaks English, and there are no restrictions on me setting up a photovoltaic operation there. I wrote a short 70 page research proposal/paper on that and a guy who works for the Chamber of Commerce loved it.
@@SunRabbit yeah Greenland has problems..
En el sur de la isla, en el verano, hay granjas donde se cultivan cereales, hortalizas y se cria ganado. En esa parte el clima es mas benigno que en el resto de la isla. Lo que no se que pasa en el invierno en esos lugares.
Totally different ☺👍
Did that kids drawing say bitch? Or is it just me?

espéro y no ser muy viejo para conocer un lugar como groenlandia, desde chico me siento atraido por la idea.. estoy harto de la maldita violencia de Mexico, los robos y la delincuencia... veo a Nuuk como una tierra prometida y tranquila donde me gustaria estar.. aunque sea unos minutos... pescar con mis hijos a los cuales amo y deseo que sean felices lejos de este lugar donde siempre tienes que estar atento a algun tipo de violencia, casi tanta como el terrorismo
Si sabes que Groenlandia tiene la tasa de suicidios mas alta del mundo?
@@furter189 por desgracia si..no deja de ser una isla casi desierta..

What did he say ?
I have an idea for a tv show that takes place in greenland a inuit gangsta youths have banded together .they are westernized from music and movies and the internet . They dont want to be fishermen or hunting for seals ,they love their culture and want to preserve it and their family gang to become rich and get their peice of the dream more daydreamed from movies than the actual reality .they are all highly trained warriors great stamina .tracking skills second to none .gave extensive knowledge of weapons and with the way they all have been raised to respect women but to be untrustful of men strangers in their quest to break bad they come up against the world with greenland being a halway point from north america and europe are in a position to smuggle anything from weapons to drugs to running these greenuuks are hard ,smart and hungry to bring the cake home no matter the danger or the job
Trevor Mcvety, this sounds more like an American fantasy than anything else. Extensive knowledge about weapons? 😂 Our young people are not required to sign up to serve in the Danish military although they can if they wish it. As for guns, only hunting rifles and shotguns are legal. Any other type of guns, handguns, uzis, grenades and what else Americans can’t seem to live with out is totally banned here. Only the police have handguns and the few times they have had to draw them, but not fired, has hit the front pages of our news papers. Here guns are tools same as a fishing hook. We don’t need them for protection from our neighbors. The idea of a bunch of young Greenlanders behaving like a bunch of hard-core American youth the way you describe is totally ridiculous.
I’ve changed the channel already
Seems like they have to teach the concept of “what is school”
Before anything else
The darkness must be hard
I guess they have the same amount of darkness that Reykjavik has.
I went to that USK school in 2017 and i have no idea who that Louise becouse my english teacher had black hair and was greenlandic and not danish and blonde
Hello Tia, it was shot in October-November 2015.
belle musique!
there you can meet with no one or with everyone
7:03 well, then maybe learn some Kalaallisut first, before going to Greenland to teach danish. Why was she hired by the school in the first place? This job should‘ve gone to someone bilingual.
I think the drop out rate is enormous is because the language is irrelevant to the realties of the region
It is too cold to live there. I wouldn't live there
I can assure you it's not that cold. It's only so cold or colder up north or a small town called Kangerlussuaq and it's only during the winter.
Chigago is cokder that here
@@JuliaFleischer95 It depends on the point of view, I live in Sicily, Italy, an island in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, here in the summer is extremely hot, we reached 47° degrees in a town called Catenanuova, and in the winter we don't go under 10° degrees.
@@lucacosta2175 that's bcuz it's a warmer climate 🙂 i meant that it's nothing compared to how cold it can get for some places in greenland n nuuk is far from the coldest
@@JuliaFleischer95 I know, Nuuk is not a lot cold compared to the northern part of Greenland 👍🏼
Hii NUUK ..from Indonesia
I'm from greenland
hello
@@FuckZionify hi
are you from Greenland? Some of the first Europeans to visit Greenland were ... the Portuguese !. Around the year 1500 they visited Greenland and made a very good map of its coastline: upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9c/Cantino_planisphere_%281502%29.jpg Don't eat too much seal that gets fat!
@@TheMariepi3 nice
Hi from brazil
100th Like 👍
the language sounds like mongolian?!
Omar YNWA not really.
@@Lovebeingdivine I've heard Mongolian but our language sounds nothing like Mongolian. But if i remember correctly, our very far ancestors migrated from somewhere in asia (probably Mongolian) and arrived to Greenland hundreds or thousands of years later
@@JuliaFleischer95 Our language? U live In greenland?
@@topiash7693 Yup 🙂
@@topiash7693 Born and raised in Greenland
I don't feel like the natives have control of their country..........
Imagine the natives of Greenland going to USA and people think they are asians.
Imagine being half danish and half Japanese growing up in Copenhagen always being asked if I am Greenlandic or Inuit…
yes...alcohol is ravaging greenland...8:35
Tune It Up tune it in and if they say tune it down tune them out
The language is harder than Chinese!
believe me IT DOESNT
It has been catagorized as the hardest launguage to learn, it is even in the Guiness book of records
if you think that our language is the hardest to learn - we must be really clever talking our mothertongue 😉
Sending support maria Isabela official qujanaq

Stakkels lærer. Det gik da bedre, da jeg gik i skole deroppe.
Hej poul
What about mines of rubies, gold , diamonds...are there any ? Greenland would be different by its own resources. But who cares? Greetings from Morocco
Shure. Greenland IS Magnific. But,I understand Not, why that one micro-language, that danish,IS teached vainly, for Innuits.. Innuit and English,Is sufficient for All!
Shout out to Greenland
I don't see any big trees in their place
Think I have a crush on the teacher lady
How did mongolians tribes get there??
Well one morning about 4-5000 years ago we a small group left our relatives by heading northeast. Crossed the landbridge over to alaska, bit keep waliking east and years later we artived here and settled
@@nielsjosefsen431 "years later" As in like 1300 AD.
Why do you think they are mongolians
They are not Mongolians, they are Inuits.😜
Intersting
Frist wher thinkin he wher talkin greenlands but wher english anyway good he knows a little english
God, this is not how school children are suppossed to act
7:45 Excuse me?
i need job in greenland
These people are huntergathers. They are used to be outside most of the time. The European schoolsysteem weakens them.
I would love that teacher to teach me some things... 7:02
People from Nuuk are called Nuukies. Also, don't try to nuke Nuuk, ok? ;)
russell solomon Nuukies? *Nuummiut
@@teaxoxo4473 yeah it is 'Nuummiut' not 'Nuukies'
WOULD BE FAR BETTER WITHOUT THE MUSIC.
Why they call it Greenland?
this is like one of the most well known historical facts. Maybe do your fucking research
im kam lol
@Steven Moore nothing geez take a chill pill
Avid Bakhshi: According to legend it was the Norse Viking Eric the Red who gave Greenland it’s name. He arrived in the South Western part of Greenland which is very green and greener than the area he was familiar with in Iceland.
Lmao the pic "bitch"
You should learn some Greenlandic before teaching there.
Or danish
虞海 I agree the Inuit Language is the mother tongue (L 1) and should be the médium of instruction in the first six grades of schooling
The kids are supposed to learn danish so they can assimilate into danish society. Or at least that's the idea.
You should try learning greenlandic before commenting that. Greenlandic is probably one of the hardest language to learn in the world.
J
Polysynthetic doesn't imply impractical to acquire. I can claim English is hard as well but people teaching in the United States all acquired English before. I didn't visit Greenland and am not instructing kids there so I am not required to learn Greenlandic before commenting anything.
