Norway celebrates its 200th anniversary today, May 17th.
The bicentennial marks the signing of the Norwegian constitution, in 1814, following Napoleon’s fall.
Oddly, there are almost as many descendants of Norwegians in the US (4.5 million) as there are in Norway today (5 million). Norwegians form the 10th largest American ancestry group, and there are more descendants of Norwegians worldwide than native Norwegians!
We know at least one Norwegian domainer, Stian Holtet, and we wish him Happy Anniversary for Norway on behalf of all domainers! 😀 Gratulerer! 😀
