Iceland

Probably not that many in immigrant numbers, Icelanders are very welcoming towards foreigners though and pretty much every single Icelander speaks English at a good level.

Studies have shown that a majority of Iceland's women are actually descendants of Irish (Celtic) people kidnapped by vikings and brought to Iceland. So you could say that a good portion of Icelanders are actually Irish.

Iceland

Because of location, water stream temperature and hemisphere facts. Anyway if you mean because "Iceland" is called -ice-landt, here is a litta storie: "There was a man by the name Flóki Vilgerðarson. He was a great Viking. He left to find Garðarshólmur" -- Landnámabók The second Norseman to arrive in Iceland was named Flóki Vilgerðarson, but the precise year of his arrival is not clear. According to the story told in Landnámabók, he took three ravens to help him find his way. Thus, he was nicknamed Raven-Floki (Icelandic: Hrafna-Flóki). Flóki set his ravens free near the Faroe Islands. The first raven flew back on board. The second flew up in the air and then returned to the ship. However, the third flew in front of the ship and they followed its direction to Iceland. He landed in Vatnsfjörður in the Westfjords after passing what is now Reykjavík. One of his men, Faxi, remarked that they seemed to have found great land -- the bay facing Reykjavík is therefore known as Faxaflói. A harsh winter caused all of Flóki's cattle to die -- he cursed this cold country, and when he spotted a drift ice in the fjord he decided to name it "Ísland" (Iceland). Despite difficulties in finding food, he and his men stayed another year, this time in Borgarfjörður, but they finally headed back to Norway the following summer. Flóki would return much later and settle in what is now known as Flókadalur. Sorry for the vast length of pre-reading before the actual fact. Is for building up tension.

Iceland's government is a parliamentary republic, with a president elected once every four years. The prime minister, together with the cabinet, is the head of the executive government.

Iceland is greener than Greenland. When the Vikings settled them, they named them in the opposite manner of how they were, hoping to trick travelers and keep the green country for themselves.

They secluded Iceland from all trade with other European countries. They paid as little as they possibly could to Icelanders and sold them items at outrageous prices.

Dealing with a foreign trader like a Dutch or a British one was a serious crime that carried serious consequences. Some of those were executions or being transported to a penal colony and stripped of all your land.
