The U.S. has — by far — the world’s largest defense budget, spending $948 billion last year. Its armed forces have 1.3 million personnel — some of them currently stationed in Greenland. Denmark, for its part, last year spent $9.9 billion, has only 17,000 soldiers, and most of its heavy land-warfare equipment has been donated to Ukraine.
whites actually settled Greenland as well, but died out because they couldn't handle the cold
one of the rare few cases where outcompetition took place naturally, and not by throwing hordes of racism + people at stuff
