A cold country…

A cold country… men mye varmere enn andre områder så langt mot nord, på grunn av Golfstrømmen

Only 3 % arable land

70 % is high plateaus and rugged mountains

A long coastline and 50.000 islands

Norway: The traditional view

Norge er også et moderne samfunn med høyt utdannet befolkning og et dynamisk næringsliv

Historie

Bebodd siden slutten av istiden (10 000 år siden) Vikingtid 800-1200 Union med Danmark i perioden 1200-1814 Egen grunnlov i 1814 Union med Sverige 1814-1905 Selvstendig i 1905
