Gli Inuit vivono in tutto il circolo polare artico con la percentuale maggiore in Groenlandia, molto vicino all’Islanda. Qual è il motivo per cui non hanno mai colonizzato l’Islanda quando era vuota e più abitabile della Groenlandia?

I think they didn’t have ocean going ships. Just kayaks and such. Not many trees around.
They never developed ships that could cross oceans
iceland was settled before the greenlandic got to greenland, and the western side is the more inhabitable part.
Iceland and Greenland aren’t connected by land and there aren’t islands in between to hop between. In addition the Inuit didn’t settle permanently in Greenland until ~1000-1400 CE when Iceland had already been settled
