Queen Margareta Valdemarsdotter - the danish queen - was the widow of the NORWEGIAN King Haakon Magnusson. She lived at Akershus Castle in the middle of Oslo untill she left for a better climate in Denmark. What if the stupid shit never died - would Sweden and Denmark have found themselves in a union ruled by Norway

<span id='postcolor'>

Actually the Kalmar union was exactly as it sounds. It was a uninon. It was between Denmark, Sweden and Norway (although nobody asked Norway, only Sweden and Denmark signed it ). And it was Danish for seven years, not hundered years.

These were ther rulers:

Marareta, the Kristians and the Hanses' were Danish, the rest were Swedish. So the Kalmar union was mainly Swedish dominated with occasional Danes being the rulers. No Norwegians here either <span id='postcolor'>

   

Well, what can I say!

We still have oil though - you don't!

wow..this thread is funnier than throwing a soccerball into a room full of Europeans

[Guest BratZ]

Did this terrorist violate rules like 13 times? And has he taken over countries and terrorized them after? Like setting oil fields on fire killing wildlife and such?

I think the US shouldn't worry about what Iraq does until its a threat to ourselves.Let him take everything over there over!We help countries time and time again for who knows what reason?

Apparantly NATO won't prosecute on first offense anyways,

it takes several times until the US puts their foot down and says hey wha?

Oh yes, US the good samaritan. I know, you always lend a helping hand - defending and fighting in the name of freedom all over the world. All that, and no self-interest! True altruism if I dare say!

There are many interests at stake in this case and oil is definately one of them. Both France and Russia have contracts on oil in Iraq if and when the embargo ends. US badly want's the same oil because you need it. So war would favour US interests. Perhaps not in the long run because you would not become "Mr populare of the year" in the arab world. There are several threads on this forum if you decide to learn about middle eastern politics.

"Did this terrorist violate rules like 13 times?"

I think the Russians have more than 13 grudges against him, yeah.

"And has he taken over countries and terrorized them after?"

No. But neither did Osama Bin Ladin. Which was who I was refering to in the first post.

"Like setting oil fields on fire killing wildlife and such?"

Again, no. But that is not relevant as Osama didnt do that either. We are discussing the war on terrorism here, not the Gulf war.

Right. I'll never forgive you Swedes for making crusades to Finland. We were perfectly happy with our pagan religions, but you just HAD to come in to spread your christian crap.

Would be a lot of "errr" und "dunno" and "I have to go to Camp David" things I guess.

Oh yeah let´s put them into axis of evil now.<span id='postcolor'>

I guess the next step by US would be a "beer-embargo" on Denmark  <span id='postcolor'>

Funny enough, Russia is a waaaaay bigger market for Carlsberg than the US. The reason Russia wishes to remain friends, is that we secretly threatened them to shut off the beer line to Moscow!

Haha, yes. The only marketing scheme that could bring global politics down to such a one-sided and childish level, that even Little Bush can understand some of it.

[shadow 6]

On the subject of "war on terrorists", I find it very strange that Norway have'nt been targeted. We got a lot of terrorists that sit in Oslo , calling themselves "politicians"

I guess we're not the only country that contain that kind of terrorism huh?

[Longinius 1]

Norway doesnt need to be terrorised, you got it bad enough all ready ;p

Not yet. But maybe soon?

[Die Alive 0]

whatever, it's one big blur for me.  sheeit i didnt even read the story, i was far away on radio and heard something about ikea and bombs, thought this happened in denmark.

[Longinius 1]

Uhm, why do you connect Ikea to Denmark anyway?

[-TU--33ker 0]

lol everybody knows that IKEA comes fron sweden.

maybe it's not that wide spread in then US as in europe.

don't try to search the swedish embassy in berlin. go directly to IKEA!

[FSPilot 0]

Actually IKEA is fairly well known in the U.S.

I think our futon (fancy couch) is from IKEA, but I might be wrong.

You are such an obvious troll, you should have been banned months ago.

Can any forum moderator look at this thread, or any other by this person and not guess what it would evolve into?
