They became a member of NATO and the United States operated a military base there. Centerright coalitions ran the national government and municipalities all across the country\, with one exception: In Neskaupstadur\, a town of 1\,500 people in the east of the country\, socialists ran the show. They came to power in 1946 and maintained control for 52 years. \nWrestling\n\nDenni is a tunnel-maker and Einar is a farmer in the country side of Iceland. They both practice the sport of Icelandic wrestling\, which allows them to escape their daily routine and to express their true selves.
