List of Cities Iceland

One of the most beautiful countries globally, Iceland is a place with a lot of beautiful landscapes, volcanoes, lava fields, glaciers, and hot springs. The good thing is that all of these are protected in the national parks. The country's main population lives in the capital of the country, and this is the place for a lot of historic places like the National Museum and saga museum. The relation of this place with the history shows the Viking's history of this place. The municipalities mainly consist of cities and towns, and a lot of municipalities contain only one locality. However, there are some with no locality at all. These usually share the name. Simultaneously, there could be a locality and municipality sharing their name, but this will not mean that this is a municipality with a single locality.
