A Short History of Greenland - 'The Most Valuable Piece of Real Estate On Earth'
Podcast: History UncensoredPublished On: Mon Jan 12 2026
Description: When President Trump first expressed interest in acquiring Greenland in 2019, the world was incredulous - but did you know he wasn’t the first? History Uncensored's Bianca Nobilo talks us through a brief history of world’s largest island… Deeper reading/ listening from Bianca: “I recommend ‘The Future History of the Arctic’ by Charles Emerson and ‘The Arctic: What Everyone Needs to Know’ by Klaus Dodds for a sense of the wider picture and ‘When the Ice Is GONE’ by Paul Bierman and ‘Greenland and the International Politics of a Changing Arctic’ by Kristian Søby Kristensen and Jon Rahbek-Clemmense for a deeper dive into Greenland's politics and climate. Lastly, Spiralkampagnen is the podcast I reference, which you can find on Spotify.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
