	Alexander's Gas & Oil Connections - Norway passes two controversial gas projects amid protests
		Norway is Europe's largest exporter of oil but at the same time Norwegians have traditionally seen their own country as clean and green since almost all energy is generated by hydropower.
		Norway's state-owned oil and gas company Statoil and its partners stalled the development of the field earlier this year, until the financial ministry offered to amend petroleum tax laws to boost the field's profitability.
		The Christian Democrats, who oppose the measures, are forming a coalition with the Conservative and Liberal parties to form the new government, after September's election failed to produce an outright winner.

		Because of Norway's immense shipping interests she demanded a separate consular service, and it was the refusal of Sweden to consent to this that led to the separation.

		In fact, Norway's main contribution to the war was that it tied down hundreds of thousands of German troops who were basically doing nothing, waiting for an Anglo-American invasion which never came.

		Where Norway is concerned, the prospects of a peaceful revolution in a country that today is second only to Saudi-Arabia when it comes to oil exports, must be said to be microscopical.
