Hmm, you get very angry with people who thinks that the Vikins wore horned helmets because you know they didn't.
You also get upset when other nations make fun of the Swedes because that's our thing! :-)
You like the King but not Ari Behn.
You have some sort of obsession with nature. When you're out in the forest, wet and cold and freezing you don't feel miserable but great.
You quote Ibsen and thinks its Bjørnson. Even teachers do this. It's very annoying for those of us who quote Ibsen and knows that it's Ibsen :-)

You can sit on the garden of the king's palace, and eat a sandwich, leaning against the wall of the palace, in Norway. I think this summarizes a lot.

Norway is:
#1 in the Global Peace Index
The 2nd most expensive country in the world
I am a Norwegian myself and was just about to stereotype Norwegians, but I just couldn't do it. Imagine stereotyping an entire nation. There is always a new generation to contradict the traditional values. I think this goes for all People. Maybe it's easier to say what Norwegians are like coming from the outside, but in the globalized world we live in today you can't expect to be able to accurately pin down the characteristics.
