In November, the people approved a Danish prince as their king. 

Geography: 
Norway is a long, narrow country on the northwestern edge of the European continent. Most of the Norwegian people live near or along the sea. For this reason there winds all ways warm, and snow melts quickly there. Even north of the Arctic Circle, nearly all of Norway's harbors free of ice all year round. Inland are very much colder, and snow covers the ground much of the year. For thousands of years, the people have used skis for travel over the snow-covered ground.
Norwegians eat four times meals par day, breakfast generally includes cereal and open-faced sandwiches with cheese, jam, herring, marmalade, or sliced meat. Goat cheese is a favorite sandwich spread.
All people of Norway can read and write. Norwegian law requires children from the age of 7 to 16 to go to school. The primary school programme lasts six years. It is followed by three years of junior secondary school and three years of senior secondary school.
Norway's land is not rich in natural resources. Only 3% of Norway people are farmer. And others people of Norway's worked in some industry. Service industries are those economic activities that produce services.
