	CSC,LLC. - Point of View - Norway
		Norway’s history goes back about 14,000 years, to a time when it was inhabited by a Paleolithic culture that were able to survive through their expertise in hunting and fishing.
		Norway was getting a reputation for regularly coming apart at the seams every time a small war broke out or one of their leaders died.
		Norway is a particularly interesting case because they can afford the luxury of taking care of everyone a lot better than all of their neighbors because of the immense oil discoveries that have been made here.

	Odin Archive - Consecration of the King in the Nidaros Cathedral (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		In the process of unifying Norway into a single kingdom, which took place during the period from 900 to 1030, the many royal pretenders of the Fairhair line soon felt the need for a national assembly to hail the high king of the realm.
		To be sure, this law never achieved the force of law in Norway, but the laws of royal succession enacted in the 13th century reiterated the designation of the Øyrating as the national assembly for hailing the king of the realm.
		The custom in Norway of making these journeys to receive the homage of the people is reminiscent of the Eriksgatan in Sweden, which always took place between the hailing of a king and his coronation in Uppsala.

	Oslo Overview \| Oslo City Guide \| iExplore.com
		Following construction of the imposing castle and fortress of Akershus Slott, by Håkon V Magnusson, in the late 13th century, Oslo’s importance grew and it developed into a major trading center, dealing primarily with Germany and central Europe.
		United with Denmark, from 1380 to 1814, and from then on with Sweden, Norway finally gained independence in 1905, and Oslo is to stage a major arts festival in June 2005 to mark this centenary (see Special Events).
		The best approach to Oslo is by sea, sailing up the fjord (where shrimpers and small sailing boats jostle with ferries and merchant ships) to where the city sprawls out from its compact center around the quays to the flanks of the surrounding hills.
