Answer

The Cod Wars were a series of conflicts between Iceland and the United Kingdom over fishing rights in the North Atlantic Ocean. The disputes arose from Iceland's extension of its fishing limits in the 1950s and 1970s, which brought it into conflict with the British fishing industry. The conflict was eventually resolved in 1976 with an agreement that established a 200-mile exclusive economic zone around Iceland.
