if the ice on greenland melted, it would likely disrupt the warm water flow from north america to europe, which is partly why europe is so warm desipte its high latitude. if this flow is disrupted then lots of europe would become an icy tundra just like northern canada, completely destroying most of the agriculture in those regions. melting greenland might yield high gains in oil and metals, but it might also destroy europe. on the other hand, if global warming continues, maybe it would counteract this and it wouldn't matter anyways.

It's been close to 2 decades since I worked as a business economist, but my guess is that $1.1 trillion for Greenland would be the bargain of the 21st century.

Greenland has huge rare earth element deposits, probably more valuable than oil or gas at this point for consumer and military tech. China controls 98% of REE market and for like 20 years western countries have been talking about needing their own supply. I’d guess Greenland is worth way more than 1.1 trillion and probably closer to 10 or even 20 trillion just in undiscovered/projected REE deposits and Denmark knows that.

He kept missing the bartender, as he kept turning towards the dance floor, saying that he “didn’t want to miss anything”, with the biggest smile. He never told any jokes, but everything that he said was hilarious, and he was always laughing before he’d finish his sentences. I’m also pretty sure that he wasn’t drunk (or at least wasn’t so drunk that it’d have been the booze, good ‘ol liquid courage, speaking).

Local from St. Croix, USVI here, the 25 mjlljkn was all in gold and I may have a reason that comes from the Danish people and not their Gov't about selling islands. "Never again" is what I've heard time and time again, tourists fly down and lament the fact it is no longer the DWI. Beauty, history, resources, defense capabilities, tourism and vacations to your country's gem in the sun all gone for gold. Don't know who would repeat that type of deal.

What those visiting Danes forget is that the Danish government had been trying to sell the Danish West Indies (DWI) from the 1850s onward. The DWI had been a drain on the Danish economy since the Danish slaves were emancipated in 1848; the loss of this cheap labor made the agricultural estates unprofitable, leading to an economic collapse in the DWI. Though the Danes shopped the islands to numerous countries, no major power was much interested in paying for a collection of backwater islands. This lack of interest changed when the Panama Canal was nearing completion. The most direct shipping routes between the Panama Canal and European ports passed very close to the Danish West Indies, suddenly making the DWI strategically important; it was feared that this potential bottleneck could be blockaded by a hostile force. Prior to the start of World War I, Germany began to express an interest in the islands; needless to say, German acquisition of the islands was unacceptable to Britain, France, and the United States. The start of WWI forced the issue, leading the U.S. to purchase the DWI for $25 million. The U.S. officially took possession of the islands on March 31, 1917, only six days before the U.S. formally declared war on Germany.

What will happen in future is that people currently living on this island will demand independence from Denmark which they will get, and Denmark will lose it too
