      The leprechauns.

      Who would I be talking about besides Greenland? In case you didn’t know, they are in the process of becoming an independent country.

        Thank you for the clarification. I didn’t know. I wasn’t sure if you meant Greenland wanting to leave Denmark, or Greenlanders wanting to leave Greenland…

        But desiring Independence whole nother ball of wax than wishing to be a vassal to different nation.

        They’re an autonomous region within Denmark, and they have some pro-independence and some pro-staying-with-Denmark parties. The pro-independence parties predominate, but seem to be playing the long game.

        There is no party that’s supporting joining the US.
