Located in northern Europe, Norway is home to majestic fjords, mountains, and lakes. Once part of various unions with Denmark and Sweden, Norway gained its independence in 1905. Since then, the country has developed into an economic and cultural hub and now enjoys one of the highest standards of living in the world. From the adventures of the fearless Vikings to the groundbreaking discoveries of famous Norwegian explorers, from the plays of Henrik Ibsen to the artistry of Gustav Vigeland, and from the ancient traditions of the Sami to the modern Norwegian monarchy, this book introduces a country that embraces its age-old traditions as it ushers in the new millennium.

This thorough introduction to modern-day Norway and Norwegian culture shows the impact a small country can have on the world in terms of peace building, environmental issues, technological innovation, and more. Culture and Customs of Norway provides an up-to-date view of Norway, showcasing a nation that is part of modern Europe, yet zealously maintains its own culture and identity. Providing the most current information on a broad range of topics—including cinema, literature, food, art, performing arts, and architecture—the book also places modern-day Norway in a historical context that makes it possible to understand how Norwegian culture came to be as it is today. Readers will discover a nation that is a fascinating juxtaposition of advanced technology, especially in such fields as oil production and climate, and some of the most spectacular natural beauty in the world. They will read about such famous writers, artists, and composers as Henrik Ibsen, Edvard Munch, and Edvard Grieg. And they will discover how Norway confronts the challenges of modern society without sacrificing its social-democratic philosophy of social justice and shared responsibility, both at home and globally.

Norway, officially known as the Kingdom of Norway, is a Scandinavian country located in Northern Europe. It borders Sweden, Finland, and Russia to the east, and the North Sea, the Norwegian Sea, and the Barents Sea to the west and north. Norway is known for its stunning fjords, mountains, glaciers, and forests, which attract millions of visitors each year. The country has a small population of just over five million people and is considered one of the happiest and wealthiest nations in the world. Norway has a rich history dating back to the Viking era, which lasted from the 8th to the 11th century. The country was ruled by various monarchs until it declared independence in 1905. Today, Norway is a constitutional monarchy, and the current king is Harald V. The country has a mixed economy with a focus on natural resources such as oil and natural gas, fishing, and forestry. Norway is also known for its strong welfare system, which provides free education, healthcare, and social services to its citizens.
