The population of Norway in 2009 is estimated at 4 million 937 thousand people - this is the 114th place in the world. This is one of the least populated countries in Europe. The average age in the country is 40 years, and the birth rate here exceeds the death rate, so the nation of charming blondes-big-timers and Vikings flourishes.

In addition, Norway is considered a mono-national country: 82% of the population consider themselves Norwegians. It is expected that 5,2 million people will live in Norway by 2030.
