Faroe Islands Education
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.
Faroese cuisine
Important parts of Faroese cuisine are lamb and fish, due to the proximity to the ocean. Traditional food from the Faroe Islands include skerpikjt (a type of dried mutton), seafood, whale meat, blubber, garnatlg, puffins, potatoes and few fresh vegetables.
