*PLEASE ANSWER* Where are you from, and what do you know about Norway?

I generally feel very positive about Scandinavian countries, but I'm afraid I don't know much about Norway. I would love to visit someday and poke around a few fjords in a small boat. I would stay away from the big cities, though...I'm afraid the Norwegian gangs would beat me up and force me to eat Lutefisk. (Just in case it isn't obvious, that was an attempt at humor...Americans are weird.)
