Iceland is an island country located in the North Atlantic ocean. It was established by Norwegian viking migrants in the 9th century who brought slavery with them. The 2008 financial crisis severely affected the country, which led to the ousting of neoliberal government officials responsible for mass privatization in January 2009.[1]
