History of Norway occurrences and people in Norway throughout history

The history of Norway has been influenced to an extraordinary degree by the terrain and the climate of the region. About 10,000 BC, following the retreat of the great inland ice sheets, the earliest inhabitants migrated north into the territory which is now Norway. They traveled steadily northwards along the coastal areas, warmed by the Gulf Stream, where life was more bearable. In order to survive they fished and hunted reindeer. Between 5,000 BC and 4,000 BC the earliest agricultural settlements appeared around the Oslofjord. Gradually, between 1500 BC and 500 BC, these agricultural settlements spread into the southern areas of Norway - whilst the inhabitants of the northern regions continued to hunt and fish.

Det Norske Samlaget is a Norwegian publishing house founded on 24 March 1868 with the aim to promote and publish books in Landsmål, now known as Nynorsk.

The books which became volumes four, five and six in the series had been published before, [1] but the time spans covered in those books were modified slightly. Some of the books have also been reissued after 2000. A Samlaget release, all the books are written in Nynorsk.

Nynorsk is one of the two written standards of the Norwegian language, the other being Bokmål. Nynorsk was established in 1929 as one of two state-sanctioned fusions of Ivar Aasen's standard Norwegian language (Landsmål) with the Dano-Norwegian written language (Riksmål), the other such fusion being called Bokmål. Nynorsk is a variation which is closer to Landsmål, whereas Bokmål is closer to Riksmål.

The first volume, Norsk historie 800–1300: frå høvdingmakt til konge- og kyrkjemakt. 1850–1900 was written by Jón Viðar Sigurðsson. The second volume, Norsk historie 1300–1625: eit rike tek form was written by Geir Atle Ersland and Hilde Sandvik. The third volume, Norsk historie 1625–1814: vegar til sjølvstende was written by Ståle Dyrvik. The fourth volume, Norsk historie 1814–1860: frå standssamfunn mot klassesamfunn was written by Tore Pryser. The fifth volume, Norsk historie 1860–1914: eit bondesamfunn i oppbrot was written by Trond Bergh. The sixth volume, Norsk historie 1914–2000: industrisamfunnet – frå vokstervisse til framtidstvil was written by Berge Furre. [2]
