Title: Big day today!
Post by: Stargazer_2098 on May 17, 2002, 04:23:59 am

Today its the 17th of May, its the Norwegian Independence Day!
Today we celebrate the forming of the Norwegian country, we celebrate our government, and being free after hundred of years under Danmark.
  Norway came under Sweeden in 1815, and belive it or not; thats what we celebrate. They where so kind as to giving us our own government and later; in the year 1905, we become our own country. But we celebrate our freedom from Danmark, as we got our government in 1815.
So what about the rest of you? Wich day is your national day?

Stargazer.

Congratulations! :)
 
Well, it's a big day for you (and other Norwegians), but not for non-Norwegians (sadly, a day without school is always good :p). ;)

Yeah, one day. The rest are just there because they stole some from later in the year.
