Ex-journo book editor of historical fiction with interests in Anabaptist Christianity, travel, photography, liberal politics, birding, gardening. Concerned about: climate change, future of Ukraine, social justice, global development, decency in discourse.
Bonus: more developable seaside acreage than Gaza, with no costly pre-construction demolition and clearance required! I for one am willing to see my country extorted into sacrificing its share. What say ye, Danes?

Who knows what riches lie under that rock?? Rare earth, indeed! Doubles as an exclusive retreat for a disgraced dictator or two to live out their inevitable exile — possibly more exciting, with rising seas after all that drill-baby-drill climate change, than Elba.

This is the territory: Hans Island, a luxuriously secure private island halfway between the Canadian territory of Nunavut and the Danish territory of Greenland, over which the 2 countries waged a tongue-in-cheek battle of flag-planting and schnapps/whisky gifts before agreeing to split it in 2022.
