The Life in Norway

In our world today the most accurate number of countries is 196. Every country rules in their own way and no one is 100% similar. Even though Europe has created the EU and we have the U.S.A in America, no country is the exact same.  If you wonder how things are in Norway for me as a student, I am now going to write a little bit about the way of schooling, economics, language and a bit of youth politics.

Since I were 5 years I have been going to school after 4 years in kindergarten. The first school we goes to is a school we call primary school which contains the first seven years of our schooling. After that we starts at a new school, the primary school. Here we are in 3 years and it is here we first are graded. Our grades goes from 1 to 6, where 6 is the best and 1 is fail. This continues over to another three years at high school.

The economy in Norway is pretty good, and especially here were I live. My "state" is the state with the highest average income and we live in good places. We have a very good life here in Norway compared to many other countries. Someone thinks our taxes are unnecessary and way to high, but I think it is pretty smart considering all the advantages we get from it.

"Arbeiderpartiet" is the name of our leading party and our prime minister Jens Stoltenberg is the leader of AP. We vote every four years for who we want to lead our country and in 2013 we are voting again. As it looks now, I think Arbeiderpartiet will rule another four years because people in Norway are a little bit afraid of changes. I am pretty  happy with how things are now, but maybe when I get older, my meanings change! Its just to wait and see!
