With an official population density of 0.1 people per sq km (yup, that’s right) Greenland is the least densely populated country in the world. The nation’s total population of around 56,500 occupy over 863,330 sq miles, meaning that most of this landscape is completely devoid of people. Not too surprising considering almost 80 percent of the land mass is covered by an ice cap and glaciers. Talk about a misleading name.
