<div id="ygrps-yiv-797847304">it is strange that the 2 versions dont agree<br/>
& also that the cia seems to agree with both of us<br/>
<br/>
according to it <br/>
greenlands lonely only major domestic tripoint<br/>
based on the eskimo names for north & east & west<br/>
is dkgl3avkitu<br/>
tho there are also the numerous members of dkgl4 shown on your map<br/>
apparently including the avkitu point among them <br/>
albeit with that weirdly reformed conjunction<br/>
<br/>
but i think sweden has a similarly strange overlap among its <br/>
provinces & counties <br/>
as well as a similarly strange subdivision of its national parks<br/>
so maybe this just reflects regional tradition<br/>
<br/>
yet we are surprised & diverted practically everywhere if we expect <br/>
subdivisional reality to conform to the simple hierarchy of our <br/>
notational system<br/>

&gt; Strange, though, that apparently there is a part of Greenland that <br/>
is <br/>
&gt; not incorporated into any municipality whatsoever, but is an <br/>
&gt; extramunicipal national park, which nevertheless seems to be <br/>
divided <br/>
&gt; by this &quot;provincial&quot; boundary. Cf. the map at the url mentioned <br/>
above <br/>
