Facts
GEOGRAPHY: The Faroe Islands are an island group consisting of 18 islands, off the coast of Northern Europe,
between the Norwegian Sea and the north Atlantic Ocean, about one-half of the way from Iceland to Norway. Its
coordinates are 62°00′N 06°47′W, and has 1,399 square kilometres (540 sq. mi) in area, and includes no major
lakes or rivers. There are 1,117 kilometres (694 mi) of coastline, and no land boundaries with any other country. The
only island that is uninhabited is Lítla Dímun.
POLITICS: The Government of the Faroes holds the executive power in locally government affairs. The Head of the
government is called the Løgmaður or Prime Minister in English. Any other member of the cabinet is called a
landsstýrismaður.
HISTORY: The Faroes declined to join Denmark in entering the European Community (now European Union) in
1973. The islands experienced considerable economic difficulties following the collapse of the fishing industry in the
early 1990s, but have since made efforts to diversify the economy. Support for independence has grown and is the
objective of the government.
