The government wanted to encourage people from outside to come and marry their girls. In order to do so, they were offering some hefty amounts. It was said that the government was offering $2,000 to the foreigners who would be marrying their girls. The reports also suggested that there were more women than men in Iceland. And, the government took such an initiative to restrict the rise in number of single women.

However, on a lighter note, it can be said that Iceland must be the best country in the world for single man. When the news came out in public, the Danish embassy was also flooded with messages from men who wanted to marry a girl from Iceland.
