Icebergs are large floating pieces of ice that have broken off from glaciers or ice shelves. While icebergs can be found in many parts of the world, the country with the most significant number of icebergs isĀ Greenland. Greenland is an autonomous country within the Kingdom of Denmark, and it is located in the northern part of the Atlantic Ocean.

Greenland is known for its massive ice sheet, which is the second-largest ice sheet in the world after Antarctica. This ice sheet produces a large number of icebergs that drift into the North Atlantic. It is estimated that about 20,000 to 40,000 icebergs are produced by Greenland each year, and many of these icebergs can be seen along the coast of Newfoundland and Labrador in Canada.

Other countries with a significant number of icebergs include Canada, Norway, and Russia. In Canada, the province of Newfoundland and Labrador is known as the 'Iceberg Alley' due to the large number of icebergs that pass by its coast each year.
