- The king in a parliamentary democracy still has many constitutional duties. One of them is to open a new session in the parliament every year, where he reads the throne speach and delivers the state of the realm to the president (speaker) of the parliament.
I was born in Norway and came to the states in the late 50s when I was 9 with my parents. Because of my work and my heritage, I had the incredible experience of greeting the King and Queen in Berkeley when they visited the Bay Area in the mid 90s. I sat at their table for lunch, and my 12 year old daughter presented the Queen with flowers. They were both so amazingly gracious during the entire day. A memory I will never forget. I thought they might invite me for a stay on my next trip to Norway, maybe next time.
yes if you were not talking to Olav V the guy's father famously decided to go on a ski trip on a train in 1973 to later claim he had "4 million bodyguards" (the approximate population of Norway at the time) when someone asked him why he did not have bodyguards and was dressed in a common ski suit and skis for his trip.
God bless Their Majesties The King and Queen. God bless His Royal Highness the Prince. Lots of prayers and good wishes for the Royal family of Norway.
Very interesting to see how other countries handle their heads of state, let alone a king, which is more and more of a rare thing these days. The countries that still keep their royalty around are keeping a very special part of their heritage, IMO, and it also shows a love (or lack of) that a country can have for ruling families that have done them well. Long live the people of Norway, and by default, their royal family! Thanks for showing us this!
I am actually not a royalist in princippal. If we would have a new country, I would have said make it a republic. But I also love history, and with our 1100 year of history, it would be a real shame to loose the monarchy.
Where are you from? And yes, State theory can be quite interesting.
@@ruralor Same here, i'm from morocco.
@@ruralor I am an American but I do appreciate people who respect the elder European royal heritage if they enjoy the consitutional monarchy system. As I just said, sometimes you hit these people in the oddest of places and under conditions you would think they were common people.
@@ruralor I'm a royalist tough ... I do respect others view ofcourse. The thing I would say is that as a King he is our top leader even that it is more a cermonial one these days. But what is good about him is that our King is not a political leader, he is everyones leader no matter what political party you belong to, he don't judge you for your political view.
A president (wich we do have one ... Stortingspresidenten) is elected by the parties... he do not hold the support from not even half the population !!! he is one to lead us ? no... I am a conservative ... I would never accept a president from like ... the communist party Red ... And even if it is highly unlikely ... I would say no.
Norwegian monarchy is a truly democratic monarchy. Wish I was born there.
Ya having to be sworn in by the President of the Parlament. Makes one realize how much democracy has changed over the years and accepts old traditions.
Malaysia also practicing constitutional monarchy and the King also present to open the parliament. Very unique and love to see this!
King shows up in vintage Lincoln limo. I'm already liking this king.
Yes in 1973 during the embargo the king just puts on a ski suit, skis, and takes a train without guards or companions. When questioned he just tells the media that he has 4 million bodyguards believing that no one in Norway would want to assassinate him as he goes undercover.
The advantage of not having a domestic motor industry is that the state is free to buy the best cars from any country in the world.
I’ve been in Norway 🇳🇴 in 1996 For the Nobel Peace Prize is one the most beautiful country of the Scandinavian!!
Well isn’t Sweden the country where Nobel prizes are given?
@@lorenzomonteduro3202 Sweden 🇸🇪 and Norway 🇳🇴 are the countries that they choose the laureates, and according with Alfred Nobel will The only Nobel attributed in Norway is the Nobel Peace Prize other categories are in Sweden:
If you want to see a state opening of parliament, watch the British one.
Absolutely, The British parliament is magnificient
@@theroyals1153 we dont do it with much as the pomp nowa days what is sad.
The Norwegian like simple events
As an American who is a traditionalist, I LOVE these kinds of ceremonies. In particular the formal dress. We used to have things like that here, but sadly my country has become very slovenly, especially over the last 25 years or so.
I do love the fact that the King is riding in a 1960's American Lincoln Continental convertible! Its even more amazing to me that he rides in an open car. Our government leaders have not been permitted to do that since the 1963 killing of President Kennedy. That Lincoln sure is beautiful and proof that leaders do not need a new vehicle every 4 or 8 years at a cost to the taxpayers of 1 million dollars like here in the States.
I wonder who was riding in the Audi limousine? I guess it must have been the Prince.
The first cars we saw brought the King's and the Crown Prince's aide-de-camp staff. They sort of serve as the King's personal secretaries, arranging practical things related to his appointments. There are three of them, one for each branch of the military. Army, navy and airforce.
Then comes the Audi limousine. It brings the Crown Prince in the back seat, and the 'court master' (the chief of staff at the royal palace) in the middle seat.
Last comes the King and Queen in the 1966 Lincoln, I think.
If you was surprised that they can drive in an open car, then I think you should take a look at this:

I don't think there are many places in the world where this could've happened. The Head of State walking down the main street in the capital.
@@ruralor Thank you for your reply. My thoughts were correct in that it was the Prince in the Audi. Here in the States, we do things a bit different. The president has a chief of staff and a personal secretary who arrange his practical things and appointments. The representatives of the branches of the military of which you speak serve on what WE call the "joint chiefs of staff." Their role, regarding the president, is to advise him on military matters since our president is also the commander in chief of all the branches of the military.
That WAS a very nice walk. The Queen sure looks like a very classy lady. I believe you are correct. Very few countries could do such a walk. I know Queen Elizabeth of Great Britain used to go among the people like this until her age has now slowed her down considerably.
Here in the States, the only time you will see something like this is on inauguration day when the president will sometimes step out of his armored bullet proof limousine and walk part way from the Capitol to the White House after the swearing in ceremony. However, its only for a VERY short time and there is so much security around! They are even on the rooftops of buildings along the route. Its actually very carefully staged for safety purposes.
Me encantó demasiadas señales. Dios bendiga a la humanidad🙏
Long live the king
Думається нема річки названої Велика Канава. Вона така була прекрасна в ті прадавні часи , наповнена білими птахами , які плавали і розкидували прекрасне біле пір‘я. То був далекий 1973-1977 роки . Мені три - сім років. Пам‘ятаю у Вас була проблема сходинок в Парламенті у Вашій присутності мабудь багато зачіплювались . Я незвично пролетіла і стала так, що треба знову йти у Ваш Парламент. Всі були щасливі. Всі живі і здорові.
Quite a regal affair - a bit quiet, but elegant.

par toutes les respects pour toujours
Have to say the Norwegian Parliament is one of the best looking I have seen. It’s just so unique. Oslo generally has quite the character too it.
The building is from 1866.
better than romanian s parliament?
En España, el Rey también abre el parlamento en un acto solemne.
The great great grandson of Queen Victoria opens Parliament in Oslo.
Ya a book about August 1914 opens at a UK funeral in 1910 calling the dead king the "Uncle" of Europe.
It is as beautiful as the Westminster style !
No curtsey to the King,Queen and Crown Prince?
The King, the Queen, the Crown Prince and the President of the Storting all bowed to each other. Didn't you see that. Bowing is a form of courtesy.
On 17.36 Video cuts the song, does anyone knows the name of it' It resembles me Good Save The King/Queen2 of UK.
Yes, it is 'God Save the King' with Norwegian lyrics, we call it the royal anthem. That tune has been used in several countries in the past, it was even the national anthem of Germany for a while.
My personal question is simple. Is the President's chair like that normally or is it just uprooted to make way for the royal chairs?
No, the President's chair as well as the platform where they make speaches/debates from is temporary removed to make space for the throne. Normally it looks like this: www.stortinget.no/contentassets/17dc7d15558f466e942ec9f094ea8bcd/stortingssalen-fra-galleriet_840.jpg
This ceremony is very very similar to ours in Great Britain.
Yes, it's the same princippal, just quite abit simpler than in the UK.
They sing a song with a familiar tune too 🙂
@@johnalbent Yes, our royal anthem. God save the King.
yeah but in uk the queen arrives with horses which is amazing
1968 Lincoln?
Why was the singing of "God Save the King" cut short in this video?
That song is originally French, not English. Many countries have used it and uses it as the song for their King/Queen
@@JudasPriestSUCKS No it's not originally French. The author of the tune is unknown.

A bit more in keeping with modern day practice than the overly done opening of parliment in the UK
I think you'll see King Charles toning things down. He wants a smaller monarchy similar to the Scandinavian nations.
Such joy...I know the pandemic was hard, but if this is going back to normal, well...I did not need a Valium after this, that's for sure...
confused, he gets a piece of paper then hands it back to the lady? What's going on?
The speach is very political, it is all about the goals of the government and the country for the next year. The speach is written by the government, so therefore it is the prime minister who hands the speach over to the king. The king then reads it, and delivers the documents over to the president off the parliament.
I cut out all the talking, so that is maybe why it can be abit confusing. If you watch my other video, ruclips.net/video/5bF4W7yQd_k/видео.html, you can see the whole thing.
Raphael just think of it as a US State of the Union Address only that the speaker is simply a "speaker" and the chief speech writer is the Prime Minister or leading legislator.
Sa majetad sa majesty l'ordre très chers royaume chers aux fond de mon cœur la vagabonda a bouffer énormément le trône SA majestad SA Majesty l'ordre là bible e la fortune l'ordre
A little pomp and circumstance is a wonderful thing. Nice to see the King (if thats who that was ) uses an aluminum adjustable cane you can buy at Walgreens.
Yep. And here in Europe, with public healthcare, you don't even need to buy them. If you are injured, you get to borrow them from the hospital.
Ferrari 👑❤️❤️
Why does everyone bow to the lady facing the throne?
She is the President of the parliament. Even the king bows to the President of parliament, as to show that the parliament and the democracy is over the king.

O rei não falou nada?
Yes, he read a speach, but the video is cut. I have other videos on my channel where you can watch the whole thing.
@@ruralor obrigado amigo por a gentileza de ter respondido!
I met them at the airport once on an Easyjet flight to Prague. They were really nice and offered me a slice of breaded ham, a bag of Babybel and a tin of Fanta, they'd cleared their fridge into a pillowcase as they wanted to turn it off while they were on holiday. We got chatting about my trainers as she was in the market for some Converse but was worried about arch support. I also learned that he collects Tintin badges but not Professor Calculus as he despises his absent mindedness: "Why is he always forgetting?!"
Correct me if im wrong. Did i hear the english national anthem? 😮
Yes. It's the royal anthem. God save the King. It's played only in ceremonies where the King (or the Crown) are present. This is probably inherrited from the UK. The families are closely related.
We have a separate national anthem, wich is usually played in addition to the royal anthem. In all other situations, where the Crown is not represented, then only the national anthem is played.
@@ruralor Oh i see now. Thanks for taking the time to reply to me🙏. Respect and greetings from Qatar! 🤝
That song is originally French, not English. Many countries use it for their monarcs
Video not sharp.
Salam selamat sejahtera semuanya.....
Where is crown???
The crown is in a museum in a building next to the cathedral in Trondheim. It is not in use anymore. Before 1908 it was only used during coronation, but after 1908 the coronation ceremony was replaced by a much simpler ceremony, where the king swear an oath to the parliament.
@@ruralor That's monarchy in decline.
@@sambo5859 Nah, it's monarchy adapting to the modern world. We also never really had a tradition of wearing the crown. We have had a monarchy for over 1 000 years, but the crown is less than 200 years. It was only used for coronation. Actually, the coronation itself is also much newer than the monarchy. During the middle ages, kings weren't crowned by the church, they were elected by regional assemblies.
@@ruralor So British monarchy looks far more flourishing.
@@ruralor Don't forget that coronations were replaced by simple Blessing ceremonies at Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim.
Nyata....Bangsa dan Kerajaan Norwegia......tidak suka klw keluarga saya....klw masarakat dan Negaranya di hina...di injak injak di pitnah di tuduh di lecehkan di hadapan pupblic dunia......!!!.mereka juga punya Harga diri........!!!.mereka tau keluarga saya semuanya keluarga yang baik hati......!!!!!!...keluarga saya tidak pernah ikut campur pemerintah negara negara manapun juga....tidak pernah......!!!!

They look like they're not quite sure they know what they're doing... very different to the UK State Opening of Parliament.
Ah! Really. How jolly good. Congrats.

Who R they? Their sort of fashion models. How so? Well, they pretend we're all common & their not & everyone in the country forks over part of all their weekly wages by way of taxes then they buy a bunch of clothes, watches, diamonds, property, food, booze, horse's, dogs, cars, trips, parties, entrance into polo, tennis, golf, clubs then they pretend they have it all including perfect luv lives, they show off what they spend the tax money on then wave, smile, smell flowers & sometimes talk to a kid. How do they get away with it? Because the people let them. you know...the emperor who wore no clothes? everybody pretends. everybody's in on it. i still don't get it. u-have-to-play-the-game. never mind. feel up to a tart?
Their 'wages' (the royal appanache) is set by the Parliament. If you think they earn too much, you can vote for a party that want to reduce it. This is a democratic process. I agree that in for example the UK, it is insane how much money they waste on the monarchy. Here in Norway however, the monarchy is relatively cheap. Probably cheaper than many presidents. They often wear the same dresses. The diamonds are inherrited from generation to generation. The royal castle, the king's summer estate as well as the royal yacht are all owned by the State, not by the king.
There are no horses either, wich I honestly think is abit sad. We have a few royal carriges, but no horses to pull them. The horses were sold off by the Germans who occupied the castle during WWII. After that the Parliament never deemed it necessary.
@@ruralor actually in Britain most of the money spent on the monarchy comes from the Crown Estates not the taxpayers
@@pedanticradiator1491 OK. Yes. Makes sense. In Noway it is actually the State who own the properties, the lands and the castle.
What is this for a kind of circus? Or do i miss something?
Why would it be for a circus?
ANDRE your ignorance is appalling
@Ryan Yes, but this is not exclusive to parliamentary monarchies. It happens in most republics too. The President of the USA delivers the State of The Union at the Congress every year as well.
He is simply hired as a "speaker" in the name of the head of the new government to inform the legislature of the ministers plans with them without the need for the Prime Minister to do the speech themselves.

Wy all this rituals ????? Old boring rituals.... You need a revival and something new for THIS TIME !
All counties have some kind of ritual around the opening of parliament. I am sure your country has too.
