Greenland (kwa Kiswahili Grinilandi pia; kwa Kikalaallisut: Kalaallit Nunaat = Nchi ya Wagreenland) ni nchi ya kujitawala chini ya ufalme wa Denmark lakini haihesabiwi kuwa sehemu ya Denmark yenyewe.

Jina la Kiswahili limetokana na Kiingereza "Greenland" ambayo ni tafsiri ya jina la Kidenmark "Grønland" linalomaanisha "nchi yenye rangi ya majani mabichi".

Eneo la Greenland ni kubwa, lakini idadi ya wakazi ni ndogo sana kwa sababu sehemu kubwa ya nchi (85%) imefunikwa na ganda nene la barafu. Jina la Greenland limepatikana miaka 1000 iliyopita kwa sababu wakati ule hali ya hewa duniani ilikuwa na joto zaidi na hapakuwa na barafu nyingi kama leo.

Kijiografia Greenland, kisiwa kikubwa kuliko vyote duniani, ni sehemu ya bamba la Amerika ya Kaskazini lakini kihistoria na kisiasa imekuwa na uhusiano wa karibu na Skandinavia (Ulaya ya Kaskazini).

Mji mkuu ni Godthaab inayoitwa Nuuk na wakazi asilia (89%) waliotokea Asia, ingawa wengi wana pia damu ya Kizungu. Lugha yao ndiyo lugha rasmi pekee tangu mwaka 2009. 11% ni Wazungu tu na wanaongea Kidenmark ambacho kinaendelea kutumiwa na wote katika nafasi kadhaa.

Upande wa dini, walio wengi ni Wakristo, hasa Walutheri (85%).
