Norway is a very wonderful country, the coffee is so diverse
This was a lovely introduction and family. Quite a pleasure, Norway has been quietly fascinating. The story of the siege of the family estate by the nazis was very concerning and moving. I appreciated hearing of it.
How nice you've met the royals. 👌
Lovely! Thank you for sharing this!
I saw him jogging at his summer home in kristiansand and later saw him jog whid his son and dogs!
Thats pretty awesome.
Great content ;)
Thanks!
You are a star ⭐️
'What the hell you are?'; A humble comment from Pandit Tapan chakravarty
None of the royal family have visited Pacific Lutheran University since the early 2000s. I hope they can again, as soon as coronavirus has completely passed.
I think the king visited in 2016 to, i believe, recieve an honorary doctorate.
Found a clip of him giving a commencement speech

2.40 because norway realised they could not rely on oil forever? Norway has known this since they found the oil. Thats why we got the oil found, we know it will end and have been prepering for this sinse we found it, but still we got to do better.
U guys dont need to find any money makers like the oil lol the investments return of the trillion dollors u guys have in the stock market can fund a lot
Can i ask if foreign diplomats are allowed to visit The prince?
Yes, you can ask if foreign diplomats are allowed to visit the Crown Prince.
You can really meet him on the streets oe any other place, celebs and royals in norway live as all other people in Norway, we are mostly laidback people;p
The prinses goes to a normal school
@@vikinnorway6725 Well, they do now go to a private school (but Crown Prince Haakon Magnus did go to public school)
You need to seek audience through official channels.
This is funny, because it is not customary to say "you" to royalty!

People can say that the Royal family does not "drive the country" as much as they want, the politicians knows what is best for them, which is to listen to the King in his various speeches(like the new years speech, which is important(!)) and follow his words.
The Kings word is basically the driving force behind the politics, indirectly.
he is so damn HOT!!!!!!!
These two Norwegian royals speak English better than any member of the British monarchy. No pretention way of speak as the Brits do, starting with Elizabeth II
Haakon's father, King Harald, is fluent in English, too. He spent most of World War II as a child living in Washington, DC. As a consequence, King Harald mastered the American accent to a T. The first time I saw a video of him giving a speech in English I was amazed. He sounds like he was born and raised in the US. 😅😅
@russbear31 The King of Norway is also related to the late Queen Elizabeth II. Her grandfather, King George V, had a sister name Maud who married King Harald's grandfather, King Haakon VII of Norway in 1896.
5 minutes earley are 5 minutes too late
Go back to 1063. Start the truth from there. I challenge it
So, you don't believe in the public health service of Norway.

Believe me man,that "Norwegian way of doing things" really can get on your nerves after a while.
Also if they want to draw innovation and investment how about lowering that insane tax rate?(the country ,not the royals).
You should probably educate yourself a bit. The tax rate is not anywhere near 'insane' by any comparative standards. Norway is also consistently very high on global rankings of attractive places to invest.
@@jandmath "Insane" is obviously hyperbole in case you didn't gather as much..
"Unreasonable high tax burden which in turn translates to a more unreasonably high cost of living" is the more accurate description .
Especially in light of the fairly large sovereign wealth fund where Norway could well afford to give out a vast array of tax incentives to build up its private sector and attract investment from outside building a robust economy that will sustain the decline of the petroleum industry.
Its never wise to put all ones eggs in one basket as a state.
As far as the "global rankings" go,I do not put much stock in certain vanity magazines opinions.
It is not exactly a place of high economic freedom,most of the people I know there of high net worth have one or another way of avoiding taxes via various mechanisms.
Leaving the little guy to pay extreme import taxes an bear the high cost of living.
Now in high inflationary times that is catastrophic.
I think it is you that need to amend your education my dear naive friend.(I do not hold that against you)
@@Ulyssestnt the problem with your argument, is that you forget about the long time consequens of it, in the short run it is amazing, but it burns out in the long run, and that is why the oil fund is regulated that we CANNOT use it, only the profit off it, aka it will allways grom and be a OH SHIT/massive political power tool, and at the same time helps goverment actualy have to hold a good budget comparativly to other nations.
Most of norwegian planning has come down to long therm strategies (atleast before the year 2000)
@@gampie13 There are things we can do to offset the cyclical downside without kneecapping innovation..
A lot of this is the tendency of the state controlled petroleum industry to soak up a brother portion of private sector jobs hence drying up domestic brainpower by mechanism of inertia.
There is also an unhealthy amount of public sector jobs almost indirectly supported by the petroleum industry.
This is called putting your eggs in one basket.
I do admit,there has been a push to better this as of late but that is driven by necessity due to oil prices crashing since 2014.
It also hasn't gone much further then the PR level as of yet from a policy standpoint.
We could use some tax incentives etc. to kickstart innovation and investment in said innovation.
I know me and you are but ex pats in this beautiful country allthough I have been living here on and off since I was aroun 10.(and have close norwegian relatives and ancestors etc)
Its a very welcoming country,and in many respects very similar to the US in regards to welcoming and including new people as their countrymen.
We also have a long shared historical connection(as evidenced by my own family).
Norway and US are also extremely close allies..I would say after the UK Norway would be the next "American client state"(I mean that in the best possible way).
I wish you well in your endeavors :)
yes, taxes in Norway are high, but most norwegians don't mind paying for it, because we know what we get back from it, free education, free healthcare, security and so much more.
There is no future for Norway after Oil
😅
You sure about that? Norway has allot of other industries. Not to mention that Norway for a long time have known and planned for when oil runs out or is phased out.
Not to mention The Government Pension Fund Global, mostly called the oil fund creating profit from all over the world
The "Norway had nothing before oil" and "would be nothing without oil" tale is not entirely accurate. We were huge in shipping at the outbreak of WW2, interesting read here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nortraship.
Today, Norway has the 8th largest shipping fleet in the world and have 3% of the total world "deadweight" tonnage (weight of vessels without cargo). Number might seem small, we're a small country with few ppl, the US is at 10th place with 2,8% in comparison. On top of this, Norway is the 4th largest shipping nation measured in value and is responsible for moving 10% of the global trading tonnage. And, being the country with the biggest share of ships sailing under its own flag, this is also a huge source of income.
Norway is also the 2nd largest exporter of seafood in the world.
In fact, mineral fuels, like oil, only makes out 66% of our exports goods. Now, only might perhaps not be the right word for something making out 66% of the export goods, but the point is, we have always had other things to fall back on, and our economy is not only about export goods.
For example, contribution of travel and tourism to GDP (% of GDP) for Norway is just below 10%, in comparison to 7,8% in the US, while also increasing in Norway while decreasing in the US. In 2020 the registered number of overnight stays trippeled the number of our population, and did not include cabin rentals, apartments or AirBnB.
I could go on, and I'm not downplaying the importance of oil, but it should not be overrated either.
Yea. The oil fund is going to disagree with that. Had they done it like other countries suffering from the "dutch disease" then yea, but they're not.
