 | | In 1397, Norway entered a personal union with Denmark, and from 1536 Norway was subordinated under the Kingdom of Denmark-Norway. |
 | | When the union ended in 1814 the Dano-Norwegian koine had become the mother tongue of a substantial part of the Norwegian elite, but the more Danish-sounding solemn variety was still used on formal occasions. |
 | | After the personal union with Sweden was dissolved in 1905, both languages were developed further and reached what is now considered their classic forms after a reform in 1917. |
