The Northern Inspectorate of Greenland (Danish: Nordgrønlands Inspektorat), also known as North Greenland, was a Danish inspectorate on Greenland consisting of the trading centers and missionary stations along the northwest coast of the island.
North Greenland was established in 1721.[1] Its capital was at Godhavn (modern Qeqertarsuaq).[2] The southernmost town of North Greenland was Egedesminde, which bordered Holsteinborg, which was the northernmost town of South Greenland. This boundary between North and South Greenland ran at around 68°N latitude, and in the North, North Greenland stretched to 78°N[3] to enclose Thule.
In 1911, as the administration of the colony was removed from the Royal Greenland Trading Department and folded into the Danish Ministry of the Interior, a provincial council (Danish: landsråd) was established. It was elected indirectly from the local councils and had little say in the management of the colony.
North Greenland was united with South Greenland in 1950,[4] with the administration for the northern settlements moved to Godthaab (modern Nuuk).
