Norway


Norway is a country of barren fields and frozen fjords. 90 percent of all the land is mountain. Yet, people have lived here for over 2000 years. From the invention of skis(yes, skis were first used in Norway) to present day, the Norwegians have developed plenty of methods to farm the land, replant trees and even how to fish better. It seems to adapt to such a barren land would take a strong, unwavering mind and great ingenuity. And so the country of Norway, wild as it was, is now tamed.
