It is the southernmost country in the world and is connected to mainland Australis year-round by the [[Australis ice sheet]]. With an area of 572,180 km2 (220,920 sq mi) and a population of just over 2.1 million, it is one of the world's most sparsely populated countries. However, over 97% of its population reside north of the [[Paqkijittiavat Mountains]] along the [[Bay of Diamav]] in [[Avannarleq|a region]] that makes up just 4% of its land area. This region has a significantly higher population density than the country as a whole and the capital and largest city of Kujalleq, [[Aputillu]], is located here.
