I know about the Grimsey Island of Iceland which lies to the above of the Arctic Circle but it's too small to be visible by the naked eyes on a large map like this one and so I'm excluding it.

Since I won't be including Grimsey Island so there's no question about Kolbeinsey Island which only remains visible in low tides. For more information please refer to the Wikipedia article of Kolbeinsey Island.

A small part of the mainland of Iceland also extends north of the Arctic circle, at both the northwest and the northeast.

I'm afraid this is not true, but the caveat does not exclude Kolbeinsey, a remote rock 66 km north of Grímsey that belongs to Iceland and is heavily affected by erosion. So Iceland should still appear on the list. Why was it even excluded? Part of it lies north of the Arctic Circle and it belongs to the Arctic Council.

Idk how it being habitable or not have anything to do with it being a country and being within the arctic circle.

Now we just need the antarctic equivalent. (Yes, I am aware that there are no countries within it.)

What about Kolbeinsey? I'd suggest adding it to the caveats so that people being pedantic don't ruin the comments

just put in an arrow to show Grimsey island. One of the things I like about jetpunk is that it takes into account the smallest oddities.

Iceland is still in the Arctic Circle. Tom Scott proved it a few weeks ago.

Yeah really. Don't you hate it when the US shows up in a quiz about countries invaded by the Soviet Union or on a quiz about the largest objects in the solar system? So annoying.

Imagine the North American Union, Scandinavian Union, and Soviet Empire existed, there are only 3 countries in Arctic Circle. Anyways, nice quiz.
