28. History & Geography History and geography. Short Notes on History. Christianity was adopted in AD.999. In 1035 the faroe islands were incorporated into the Kingdom of Norway. http://www.puffin.fo/travel/6.html

History and Geography Short Notes on History The population derives mainly from West-Norwegian farmers who settled here in the 9th century. It has been suggested that the Faroes were populated by Irish monks or hermits before this, but there is no archaeological evidence to support this view. Christianity was adopted in AD. 999. In 1035 the Faroe Islands were incorporated into the Kingdom of Norway. Together with Norway the Faroe Islands passed under the Danish Crown in 1380 and remained in the Kingdom of Denmark, even after 1814 when Norway came under Swedish rule. 1856 the Danish trade monopoly was abolished and the Faroe Islands gained the right to trade freely on their own. As a consequence a considerable fleet of fishing vessels was established. Fishing has ever since been the main industry and source of income. In the latter part of the 19th century, a national movement gained ground. The first political parties were established in 1906. In 1940 the Faroe Islands were occupied by British forces and thus separated from German occupied Denmark. The Faroese ensign , the MERKIÐ was approved by British Government decree in 1940.

Althing Birds of The Faroes Curlew Oystercatcher Snipe Faroese stamps featuring Gannet, Puffin and Bridled Guillemot. The bird population of the Faroes is probably the densest of the world. This is due to the amount of plankton available, thereby increasing the amount of fish and other marine life. There are 49 species which breed regularly and up to 30 occasional breeders. Common breeding seabirds include Puffin, Razorbill, Guillemot, Fulmar, Great Skua, Gannets, Cormorants and Kittiwake. Inland can be found Eider Ducks, Golden Plover, Snipe, Curlew as well as the Faroese national bird the Oystercatcher or Tjaldur Sealife of The Faroes The seas around the Faroes teem with marine life.
