Oslo is the capital and largest city in Norway. Founded around 1048 by King Harald III of Norway, the city was largely destroyed by a fire in 1624. The DanishNorwegian king Christian IV rebuilt the city as Christiania (briefly also spelled Kristiania). The city was renamed Oslo in 1925. The diocese of Oslo is one of the five original dioceses in Norway, which originated around the year 1070.

Oslo is the cultural, scientific, economic and governmental centre of Norway. The city is also a hub of Norwegian trade, banking, industry and shipping. It is also an important centre of maritime knowledge in Europe, and is home to approximately 980 companies and 8,500 employees within the maritime sector—among which are some of the world's largest shipping companies, shipbrokers and insurance brokers.

Oslo is considered a global city and ranked "Beta World City Plus" in studies performed by the Globalization and World Cities Study Group and Network in 2008.Oslo has for several years been listed as one of the most expensive cities in the world alongside cities such as Tokyo, Copenhagen and Paris.[2] In 2009 Oslo regained its status as the world's most expensive city. Oslo is a pilot city of the Council of Europe and the European Commission intercultural cities programme.

As of 2009, the metropolitan area of Oslo had a population of 1.4 million; of whom, 876,391[5] lived in the contiguous conurbation. Furthermore, the city's population currently increases at a record rate of over 2% annually, making it one of the fastest growing cities in Europe. It is estimated that 26%—or around 152,000—of Oslo's core population are immigrants. ( source Wikipedia )

  • Sadly, it's true to almost all major european cities that muslims take over. While Germany is being taken over by the turks, a great deal of UK, esp. London by the pakis, France by the Algerians, the Netherlands by the Moroccans and other north-africans and so on. As long as you vote for the liberal scumbags who make this happen there's little chance you get your habitat back. Good night Europe.

  • @haarstad88

    ...mange av de er et stort problem, og jeg syntes virkelig vi må endre litt i lovverket for å få fart på sakene, som f.eks en grense på hvor lenge man kan være uansatt, strengere krav og mer oppfølging på mange individer som sliter her i landet, som lever i fattigdom og i kriminelle områder/gjenger som burde tas før de bare har kriminalitet som levemåte. Men de som voldtar og dreper syntes jeg burde sendes vekk, for da er de for langt tilbake i tid for å forstå samfunnet vi har

  • @haarstad88 Rolig mann, det er ikke muslimer, men det er personer fra helt andre kulturer uten oppfølging, siden vi mottar for mange i året, og mange av de intergrerer seg ikke. Det er de som lever på trygd, de som vil endre den norske kulturen til sin egen, de som stjeler, voldtar og dreper, og slike individer er ikke velkommen noen steder, og burde håndtereshardt, men du kan ikke si at det er alle fra en folkerase eller kultur, det blir bare ignorant og trang-synt. Men jeg er delvis enig,

  • Nice video and nice photos

  • Muslims can move friggin back to their own country. they rape our womans and steal our money and keep the crime rate up! fuckin scumbags

  • Răspundeţi la acest videoclip... i am from Romania, and i'm working in Oslo for 3 yers now, first time wen i got here i touth i am in Iraq or Afganistan or somting.

  • @GanbareNihon17 dont move to Oslo, you mean muslims!

  • 0:02 i thought there's no civilization on moon? lmao

  • @GanbareNihon17

    Idk how that would be true. Oslo is in a very homogenous nation where people keep to themselves and are used to seeing people who look like them. They're not rude, they're scared :P

  • @GanbareNihon17 Thanks a million! You're evidently a real sweetie! :-)
