Arctic countries

Arctic countries are nations whose territories include parts of the Arctic region, characterized by cold climates, ice-covered seas, and unique ecosystems. The primary Arctic countries are Canada, Denmark (via Greenland), Finland, Iceland, Norway, Russia, Sweden, and the United States (Alaska). These countries have interests in Arctic resources, shipping routes, and environmental preservation. The region’s changing ice conditions due to climate change impact global weather, ecosystems, and geopolitical relations. Arctic countries collaborate on issues like safety, sustainable development, and climate monitoring, balancing economic opportunities with environmental concerns.
