Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. Greenland and the Faroe Islands are self-governing parts of the Danish realm
- Step 1: The Faroes have had home rule since 1948 and Greenland since 1979, with self-government since 2009. Step 2. Both remain part of the Danish realm. Answer: self-governing parts of the Kingdom. Why not the others: Greenland left the European Community in 1985, the Faroes never joined, and neither is a republic or a county.
