unitary monarchy whose territory comprises the western portion of the
Scandinavian Peninsula plus Jan Mayen and the Arctic archipelago of Svalbard.
The Antarctic Peter I Island and the sub-Antarctic Bouvet Island are dependent
territories and thus not considered part of the Kingdom. Norway also lays claim
to a section of Antarctica known as Queen Maud Land. Until 1814, the Kingdom
included the Faroe Islands (since 1035), Greenland (1261), and Iceland.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #990000;"><u><b>Did you know that:</b></u></span><br />
1. The name “Norway” means “path to the North”.<br />
2. The Jostedalsbreen, in Norway, is the largest glacier in Northern Europe.<br />
3. Gas prices are among the highest in the world, even though Norway is one of

5. Norway is one of the wealthiest countries in the world.<br />
6. You can only buy alcohol from stores called Vinmonopolet. There are only one

income!<br />
8. Food prices are so high in Norway that many people travel to Sweden to buy
their groceries.</span></span><br />

in the central Balkan peninsula in Southeast Europe. It is one of the successor
states of the former Yugoslavia, from which it declared independence in 1991.
It became a member of the United Nations in 1993, but, as a result of an
ongoing dispute with Greece over use of the name Macedonia, it was admitted
under the provisional description of "the former Yugoslav Republic of
Macedonia".<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #990000;"><u><b>Did you know that:</b></u></span><br />
1. There are (supposed) parts of the cross on which Jesus was crucified in the
foundations of the monasteries of St. Bogodorica Prechista in Kichevo, and St.
Jovan Bigorski and St. Georgij Pobedonosec in Debar.<br />
2. According to NASA, Kokino is the fourth oldest astronomic observatory in the
world; with the oldest three being Abu Simbel, Egypt; Stonehenge, Great
Britain; and Angkor Wat, Cambodia. Kokino is located approximately 30 km from
the town of Kumanovo, and about 6 km from the Serbian border.<br />
3. Ohrid Lake is the oldest and one of the deepest lakes in Europe (max depth
288m or 940ft). It is estimated 4 million years old and has 200 endemic species
that haven’t been found at any other place in the world. It was declared a
World Heritage site by UNESCO in 1979.<br />
4. Mother Theresa of Calcutta was born in Skopje, Macedonia. Even though she
was born in Skopje, she was Albanian by ethnicity at the time of her birth in
1910. Today, you can see museum house dedicated to her in the center of the
capital city of Skopje.<br />
5. Macedonia is the only country that got independence from Yugoslavia without
shedding a single drop of blood. It remained entirely at peace at the heat of
Yugoslav wars in early 1990s and got independence from Yugoslavia in 1991.<br />
6. Macedonian sidewalks are used not for walking but for parking.</span></span><br />
