The paragraph about Christiania is bullshit.
It is not legal to smoke or sell cannabis there, and the police have done several raids over the years.
Most people don't even consider it a country, but more like a borough for the hippies.
Copenhagen is mainly social democrat, with some areas even more left wing, and clearing out Christiania would be a very unpopular idea, because a large majority of their voters support Christiania.
- JupiterMoon 11y agoI'm not sure about how large (or how solid) the majority that support Christiania is, most Copenhageners seem divided on the issue. Cannabis is de facto legal in Christiania: people buy, sell and use it openly there without repercussions. This seems to be widely regarded as a good thing.
