Cape Discord
Cape Discord (Danish: Kap Discord), also known as Kangeq, is a headland in the North Atlantic Ocean, southeast Greenland, Kujalleq municipality.
History
Cape Discord was named in old maps before Lieutenant Wilhelm August Graah passed it in 1829 during his East Coast expedition. Graah took a latitude observation at the headland.
