COPENHAGEN (Reuters) - Denmark aims to show the North Pole belongs to it and is sending an expedition to try to prove that the seabed there is a natural continuation of Danish territory, the Science Ministry says.
The key to Denmark's claim is Greenland, the world's largest island and a Danish territory, whose northern tip lies just 450 miles south of the North Pole.


Denmark getting kinda uppity, first they punk Canada and now this? Santa will send out the elf defense force to deal with them.

Does anyone have a current claim on the North Pole at all at this point? I would think it would be either Canada or Russia, but since it's mostly chunks of ice and ocean, how can anyone claim it? Isn't it by definition international waters?

This is obviously Denmarks first steps towards world domination.

The North Pole is one of the top evil-super-villian hideout locations along with "Remote Volcanic Tropical Island," the ubiquitous "Secret Underground Lair," "Front Multinational Skyscraper" and of course "The Moon Base"

Well if Denmark even thinks of actual claiming, then it would be the Bush, Putin and Canadian doctrine coming after them.
