The next time Norway makes a major technological advancement let me know...If I recall correctly, the last time they did, the invention was the longboat, which allowed them to pillage Europe and (maybe) make it across the Atlantic.
Oh they did,. Then they got punched out by the indians. In more modern times it's nautical equipment(ships and etc) and equipment for the oil industry(stole from the US and then improved)
Yah right..."Improved" as in "Used inferior materials to make them cheaper and less reliable"
Just remember...it was "Stupid" Americans like Benjamin Franklin, T.A. Eddison, and those who were smart enough to decide Europe sucked and BECOME Americans like Albert Einstein, who made the world what it is today. Norway's primary modern contribution seems to have been being featured in the Monty Python "Pet shop" sketch...
Don't mock the Norwegian blue and its beautiful plumage! And inferior materials? Last I checked it wasn't a Norwegian platform that burned and sank. And sucked? They didn't want to pay for the war they wanted, kinda like modern americans actually..
This is fun, shall we continue with the "my country is better than yours because something my ancestors did and we have done fuck all" or let it go?
If you are referring to the Deep Horizon, it got hit with a Gas surge that was many times the maximum predicted possible for the surge preventers which, naturally, overwhelmed the equipment. You might as well whine that a kid's toy failed to survive in the center of a nuclear explosion. Now that the designers KNOW that much more powerful surges are possible, the Engineers will take that into account.
But Hey, Norwegian press still tries to convince people the Nazis were "Right Wing"

Another idiot. Dude, what part of national SOCIALISTS goes right over your head? Hitler and Stalin hated each other because they disagreed about what TYPE of socialism to implement, whether it should be worldwide (Soviets) or National (Nazis) - Your incredible gullibility in buying the re-casting the industry-nationalizing, asset seizing, Socialized Medicine pedaling Nazis as champions of capitalism just proves my point that there are idiots EVERYWHERE, not just the USA. Game Over.
