what was an invetion made in iceland

Our national dish is the Pupusa. Typically filled with chicharrones (porkrinds) and cheese but more recntly you'll find them stuffed with shrimp, sqash, etc.

You would also not go wrong with trying Yuca Frita con Chicharrones - Fried Cassava with pork rinds. They are extremely delicious.

El Salvador lies on the Pacifc. The seafood is fresh and amazingly tasty. Try a Parrillada de Mariscos - A seafood platter. You'll lick the plate...

Our tamales are to be experienced. They are cooked in banana leaves, with big chunks of pork or chicken and vegetables.

Try Shuco. It is a drink made of purple corn with beans and pumpkin seed sauce. It is eaten as a meal.

Try any of the many atoles (hot corn meal drinks) in El Salvador. Atole de elote, atole de piña, Chilate con nuegados.

Try some of the local sausages. Longaniza de Nahuizalco is extremely popular.

The drinks can be quite an experience. The horchata is made from the seeds of the Morro tree, and not from rice and milk like the Mexican version.

Don't forget the tropical fruits!

Depending on the season you pretty much have the same options as elsewhere in the world except there are no trains in Iceland. During the summertime tourists generally use domestic flights, buses and rent a cars, but there are always quite a few that choose to explore Iceland by motorcycle, bicycle or even walking. Most people living in Iceland own a car though so when they travel they usually just use their car but some also use buses or flights, particularly when traveling to and from places which are far apart or have bad access/roads. In wintertime the safest way to travel for tourists is with buses, especially in bad weather. Flights are routinely cancelled or delayed and it can be very difficult for someone not used to the weather or road conditions in high winter to drive in Iceland. Icelandic people living in the countryside (outside the capital) are however mostly used to the harsh driving conditions and still mainly use their car for travel. People living in the capital are generally not very good at driving in bad conditions because of a lack of experience. But there are many people, both in and out of the capital, that own specially modified SUVs that are designed to drive in those bad conditions and worse. They are in fact modified for driving on glaciers.

Yes.The drinking age in which one can take alcohol in iceland is 20?

A republic?: They fought for independence for some years, centuries, but Denmark being occupied by Nazi-German troops in World War II, cutting communication, caused Icelanders to take the change and declare independence.. Though it was probably more complicated than that. But it worked that way.

Norway and Finland share border up north!

There are many volcanoes in Iceland which erupt on a regular basis. Eyjafjallajökull was a small eruption by Icelandic standards, but its ash cloud disrupted flights in Europe and America -and that's probably why you've heard of it.

Tomatoes, potatoes, tumips, and hay are crops that grow in Iceland.

the mid-atlantic ridge is in the process of creating iceland.

Same as on other places in the world... ball games, computer games and just anything

Takk fyrir, or, politely, Þakka þér (kærlega) fyrir.

the Iceland volcano in April 2010 lasted for about 30-40 seconds and the aftershock's were for weeks as no flights were able to fly out because of the ash clouds spread over many places.

Normal houses of bricks, concrete, wood etc.

The hot water geysers in Iceland have been capped and are used to provide "free" electricity and heating in Iceland.

The Icelandic Króna, basically meaning crown.
What "form" you ask, it is mostly electronic, or used in paper bills and thick metal coins called klink in Iceland.. I think it's because the sound it makes. "Klink".

Iceland is famous for its natural beauties like Northern Lights, Geysir, Gullfoss waterfall (Golden falls), Faxi waterfall, Kerid, Thingvellir National Park and many more. It is also a cold country. Before two months, I had gone to Iceland with my friends. We travelled and stayed there 5 days. One travel company Go to joy Iceland provided all transportation services to us.

Some sources say no, others say yes. The north shore of Iceland is on the Greenland Sea, which by many definitions is part of the North Atlantic, along with the Norwegian Sea which is immediately northeast of Iceland. However, the International Hydrographic Organization includes the Greenland Sea as part of the Arctic Ocean but excludes the Norwegian Sea (which does extend farther south).

It depends on if you mean the country, or the island ..I'll tell you both. The island itself formed about 20 million years ago, with some more recent geographical features. The country first became 'a country' in 930 AD with the foundation of the parliament, but lost it's status with the pledge of fealty to the Norwegian king in 1262. So, Iceland wasn't 'fully independent' from 1262-1944. The current republic declared it's full independence from Denmark on 17. July 1944.

Resources for any country are finite and there is a balance between GDP and HDI. Iceland and Norway are not as focused on business as the United States. Iceland and Norway put more value on HDI factors. The United States places more value on work and business than on HDI factors.

There are 13 Icelandic Santa Clauses, and we say jólasveinn in Icelandic

The majority of the airports in Iceland and a couple in Europe are closed because it is very dangerous to fly an airplane through the smoke and ash that the eruption produced. The airplane turbines might catch a piece of ash the is in the giant cloud and would make the airplane turbines to explode or stop working
