Snorre Sturlason the historian has chronicled that Oslo was founded by King Harald Hardâde in 1048. Oslo was dethroned from it’s status as capital of Norway when Norway became a part of the Danish-Norwegian union from 1348-1814. Norway achieved independence from the Danes on the 17th of May in 1814. This day is celebrated with much pomp and glory all over the country now. Independence Day is a big celebration for the people of Oslo as well. This vibrant and cosmopolitan city is also the locale for the awarding of the Nobel Peace Prize every year.]]> no@spam.com (Susan Unruh) Sun, 01 Jul 2007 14:43:09 EDT http://www.notoiletpaper.com/articles/31/1/Oslo---Expensive-and-Exceptional/Page1.html
