Option 1: India - India is not known as the "country of winds." While India does experience winds, it is not specifically referred to by this name.

Option 2: China - China is not known as the "country of winds." Though China is a large country with diverse climates, it is not specifically associated with being the "country of winds."

Option 3: Denmark - Denmark is referred to as the "country of winds." This nickname comes from the fact that Denmark is a relatively flat country with a long coastline, making it prone to strong winds, especially in coastal areas.

Option 4: Germany - Germany is not commonly referred to as the "country of winds." Germany has a variety of weather patterns, but it is not particularly associated with being windy in the same way that Denmark is.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 3 - Denmark. Denmark is known as the "country of winds" due to its geographic characteristics that make it prone to strong winds along its coastline.
