An Incredibly Modern Society

Norway, as you may know, is a socialist country. With a population of 5 million people and a country rich in resources, Norwegians have established their country to support its citizens, care for its people, and ensure equal life quality for all. An overarching cultural norm of equality, similarity, and respect is ingrained in this basis. Even at work, the boss is the boss, but Norwegian work culture is much more flat hierarchical than that of other countries. As a member of Norwegian society, one individual does not deserve more than another, and Norwegians value the overall system's functionality more than that of one individual.

Norway is a fairly open-minded society that is also very gender equal. Norwegians do not required to marry to start a family, and many couples live together without a marriage certificate, according to TripSavvy. This is also a country that values mutual respect and the belief that all people are equal, which is why the Jante Law exists. This law stated, among other things, that individuals should not feel superior to others in any way and should not mock others. Although this law is now out of date, it exemplifies Norway's forward thinking.
