Some Danes are fond of saying that thanks to Greenland, Denmark is the EU country that has the largest area. They never mention in the same breath that though Greenland joined the EC (as it was called back then) at the same time as Denmark in 1973, it left in 1985. Greenland is actually the prime precedent that says that you can leave the EU, if you want to.
