What does Iceland mean to you?

I think you're right it is kind of obvious, we should all submit that as the reply :D

Makes me want to visit Iceland \o/

Isn't Iceland some kind of mish-mash of Norwegian Vikings who abducted Irish women for wives on their way there?

Sort of - Iceland doesn't have a standing army; it has a coast guard with 200 active members. CCP does have 600 odd employee's however Shocked

You've also got possibly the world's only special forces unit that's never actally killed anyone.

I like this bit

"...So far, in spite of being heavily trained in it, the use of lethal force has never been required by members of the Viking squad, which its members are reported to be very proud of.[citation needed]"

I'm tempted to sign up for the "what iceland means to you" so I can swing by CCP and give them thanks for not only the years that I played but for tempting me so much that I was willing to come back.
