The world’s most beautiful islands, Faroe Islands are a group of 18 islets and several skerries which together form an autonomous part of Greater Denmark.
The education system is entirely under the control of the local government, although it was only nationalized in 1979, and is historically and culturally influenced strongly by the Danish education system.
The majority of the Faroese population, approximately 85 percent, belongs to the Faroese Evangelical Lutheran Church.
