In 1397, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/norway-google-maps\/\">Norway<\/a> was absorbed into a union with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/denmark-google-maps\/\">Denmark<\/a> that lasted more than four centuries. In 1814, Norwegians resisted the cession of their country to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/sweden-google-maps\/\">Sweden<\/a> and adopted a new constitution. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/sweden-google-maps\/\">Sweden<\/a> then invaded <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/norway-google-maps\/\">Norway<\/a> but agreed to let <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/norway-google-maps\/\">Norway<\/a> keep its constitution in return for accepting the union under a Swedish king. Rising nationalism throughout the 19th century led to a 1905 referendum granting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/norway-google-maps\/\">Norway<\/a> independence. Although <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/norway-google-maps\/\">Norway<\/a> remained neutral in World War I, it suffered heavy losses to its shipping. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/norway-google-maps\/\">Norway<\/a> proclaimed its neutrality at the outset of World War II, but was nonetheless occupied for five years by Nazi <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/germany-google-maps\/\">Germany<\/a> (1940-45). In 1949, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/norway-google-maps\/\">Norway<\/a> abandoned neutrality and became a member of NATO. Discovery of oil and gas in adjacent waters in the late 1960s boosted <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/norway-google-maps\/\">Norway<\/a>&#8217;s economic fortunes. In referenda held in 1972 and 1994, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/norway-google-maps\/\">Norway<\/a> rejected joining the EU. Key domestic issues include immigration and integration of ethnic minorities, maintaining the country&#8217;s extensive social safety net with an aging population, and preserving economic competitiveness.
