Iceland
Actually, Iceland would better have been named “Volcano and Geothermal Land”. Just as Greenland really didn’t have that much green, but after a long time at sea, anything looked good.
Names, and a world of ignorance, are often just wishful thinking.
What’s in a name?
iceland’s on a geothermal heat supply….maybe its all their fault…
Radish; That makes sense of why on Earth they ever thought about calling Newfoundland “Vinland” (wine land).
Radish, You’re right; can’t ignore the barrel.
