List of wars involving Iceland
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The following is a list of wars involving Iceland. Although modern Iceland does not maintain a standing army, navy nor air force; it maintains a militarised coast guard which is in charge of defending the country and has deployed a small peacekeeping force internationally on a few occasions. Iceland has never participated in a full-scale war or invasion and the constitution of Iceland has no mechanism to declare war.[1] None of the Cod Wars meet any of the common thresholds for a conventional war and they may more accurately be described as militarised interstate disputes between Iceland and the United Kingdom.[2][3][4][5]
