Iceland once had king of Its own,
but lbs independence was short-lived
and within two months the island was
under the Danish flag. 1t was dur
ing the first years of the last century,
when Napoleon was all but master OF
Europe. Hating Britain with all his
heart, he endeavored to cripple her
time and again by closing all Con-
tEhental ports against British ships.
But taking time by the fOrelock, the
British navy blockaded Copenhagen
In 1907, captured the Danish fleet and
interrupted all intercourse with other
lands.
It was at this stage that Iceland, the
smallest and most remote country in
Europe, suffered indirectly for Ma
Doleon's sins. For two centuries Den
mark had enjoyed the monopoly Of
trade for supplies of all kinds But
with the capture of the Danish fleet
and the British blockade, shipping to
Iceland became almost impossible, and
the Icelanders we're reduced TO the
verge Of extremity.
