This is a very short paper discussing the problems Denmark has faced with its muslim population. Denmark has traditionally had a 'cradle-to-grave' welfare system and a very generous immigrant welfare system designed to give immigrants many benefits and encourage 'multiculturalism' and 'inclusiveness'. This has been very ineffectual with the growing muslim immigrant population, and instead they have taken social services and been very hostile toward Danish culture.

Denmark has seen upticks in crime, murder, etc., mostly due to the muslim population. This, coupled with large welfare spending on a relatively small muslim immigrant population, has led to the election of a very conservative government that has placed exceedingly high bars for immigrants to become citizens.
