There are many fjords, there's an ethnic group Saami and the traditional clothing of these people is nice and colorful, you have nynorsk and bokmål and I used to know some differences between them but forgot it xD. Norway is a rich country because of oil in the sea. Therefore everything is way more expensive than in most European countries. There's a big fishing industry as well. Your music industry started evolve quite soon and there was a decent rock scene in 90s. Some Norwegian bands are A-ha, Seigmen, Zeromancer, Dimmu Borgir, Kaizers Orchestra, CC cowboys, Gåte... and if you want to hear something very local-pub-like you'd probably should listen to Banana Airlines 😂.
One of your famous writers is Jo Nesbø and his books are awesome.
One of your weirdest and wackiest film directors is without doubt Tommy Wirkola who directed for example kill bill parody, Kill buljo. 😂
Some Norwegian horror movies are Rovdyr or Fritt Vilt - those are ones I remember watching anyway.
I'm not sure about this but I guess opera in Oslo was built and opened around 2007 or 2008?
Also there's an interesting study programme for animators at Volda university college.

It’s very beautiful. I’ve been to Oslo and Bergen. The trip between the two was breathtaking.

LyricalOne · F

Had universal healthcare since 1912 but had human zoos in 1914.
@33person The United States had human zoos [b]without[/b] ever having universal healthcare

Our President wants you guys to migrate to the US.
FeelGood · 26-30, M
@SimplyTracie Thats right! Although I doubt that will happen - in nearly every aspect Norway is a better place to live so there is no reason for any of us to leave 😂

@Kingfish28 Sure is!
I know that President Trump has said he wants more immigrants from Norway. I also understand that your economy, healthcare and education services are better than ours, so I'm not sure [b]why[/b] anyone from there would ever want to emigrate here. 🤔

@bijouxbroussard The only reverse thing about it is that he's making an inaccurate and objectively negative stereotype about white people around the world based on white U.S. Republicans this time. Btw, I never said Norwegians aren't racist. I think Norway is probably a good place to find secular progressives who are racist.
@33person Possible. I have a friend who lives in Norway. Father's Norwegian, mother's black. She's had fewer problems there than when she's come to visit her mother's relatives here.

@bijouxbroussard Oh, what a lack of corruption in the government can do!
