Hipp hipp hurra!!! Today it is 190 years since Norway became a independent country and seperated us from the rule of Denmark after 600 years!
Give me a big cheer, everyone!

Independence is over-rated - just look at the Americans since liberating themselves from Britain ;-)

Yeah, after 228 years since independence, America is the strongest country in the world.

Yeah, independence is very overrated...

Just because you say it, doesn't make it so. Independence is a very wonderful thing.

And yes, I AM an American and proud of it.

No no, it`s absolutly correct! Norway got into a union with Denmark because we were very poor and the union started somewhere in 1214 and it ended in 1814!
If you do your math that is 600 years!

Did Norway fight for their independence, or did they just wait for it to come? (600 yrs. sounds like they waited) If they passively waited, independence IS over rated. If they fought for it like the good old US of A, well, then it has some value.

We waited until we had the resources to stand on our own feets!
