Talk:Iceland

Official name

"Republic of Iceland" is not the official name. It's simply "Iceland". In the Icelandic constitution the republic Iceland is mentioned, which has caused this misunderstanding, but that isn't just a case of forgotten upper-case. It's simply referring to the fact that Iceland is a republic, "the republic Iceland", announcing in the constitution that Iceland is a republic. "Stjórnarskrá lýðveldisins Íslands" in Icelandic, which means "The constitution of the republic (state of?) Iceland". If no one objects I will change this in a week. — This unsigned comment was added by Leifurf (talk • contribs).

I’ve nominated Republic of Iceland for deletion (WT:Requests for deletion#Republic of Iceland). Can you comment? — Ungoliant ^(Falai) 19:57, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
