Anyone can tell you how to lose property overseas, and although I am not a specialist in overseas property, I have heard my share of both legal and non-legal advice on such matters, most of which began in earnest when I decided to marry a Norwegian. Making the move from the U.S. was traumatic enough without the ‘culture shock’ that snuck up as the days and months passed. Refusing to feed that monkey, I found myself progressively more established in Norway, speaking and writing Norwegian, and at least by year seven, trying to stomach some of Norway’s more challenging culinary fish delicacies.

As of 2007, Norway's population numbered 4.7 million. Most Norwegians are ethnic Norwegians, a North Germanic people. The Sami people traditionally inhabit central and northern parts of Norway and Sweden, as well as in northern Finland and in Russia on the Kola Peninsula. Another national minority are the Kven people who are the descendants of Finnish speaking people that moved to northern Norway in the 18th up to the 20th century. Both the Sami and the Kven were subjected to a strong assimilation policy by the Norwegian government from the 19th century up to the 1970s.
Because of this "Norwegianisation process", many families of Sami or Kven ancestry now self-identify as ethnic Norwegian. This, combined with a long history of co-habitation of the Sami and North Germanic peoples on the Scandinavian peninsula, makes claims about ethnic population statistics less straightforward than is often suggested — particularly in central and northern Norway. Other groups recognized as national minorities of Norway are Jews, Forest Finns, Roma/Gypsies and Romani people/Travellers.
