Connor: Blog Of The Day

Norway
Norway extends 1,100 miles from the North Sea to more than 300 miles above the Arctic Circle.  Nearly 70% of Norway is too cold for humans to live there.  Now the interesting thing is that during WW1 Norway stayed neutral along with Denmark and Sweden which since 1905 had been controlling Norway.  In WW2 Norway was invaded by the Nazis and Norway's prime minister at the time Vidkun Quisling was a supporter of the Nazis.  Norway was run by vikings whose mythology is referred to as Norse Mythology.  Norway once was made an offer to join the EU and declined.  Norway is very cool because of its past.

Wow...70% too cold for humans to live. That must be pretty darn cold. I wonder what they do for fun there...lots of winter sports and board games.
