From: "Constitution Day - May 17th"
by Michael Holmboe Meyer

After beeing under Danish rule for some 400 years Norway had her own revolution in 1814. A very peaceful revolution, consisted of calling a constituonal convention which declared that Norway is a free and indivisable kingdom.

The constitution of the Kingdom of Norway proclaimed by the Constituent Assembly at Eidsvold on the 17th of May 1814.


Ah, read it yourself.
Syttende Mai

Ya learn soemthing new everyday. With my fascination with Danish culture I was unaware of their rule over the Norwegians up until such a recent date.

Interesting.
