John Brown (abolitionist) John Brown (May 9, 1800 â December 2, 1859) was an American abolitionist who believed armed insurrection was the only way to overthrow the institution of slavery in the United States. Brown first gained attention when he led small groups of volunteers during the Bleeding Kansas crisis of 1856.
Greenland (/ËÉ¡riËnlÉnd/; Greenlandic: Kalaallit Nunaat [kaËlaËÉ¬it ËnunaËt]; Danish: GrÃ¸nland [ËÉ¡ÊÉ¶nËlanË]) is an autonomous constituent country within the Kingdom of Denmark between the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans, east of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago.
Greenland, a self-governing Danish island, and the world's largest, is on the same tectonic plate (the North American Plate) and is part of North America geographically. In a geologic sense, Bermuda is not part of the Americas, but an oceanic island which was formed on the fissure of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge over 100 million years ago.
