Each year, countries around the world grow closer together through business, education, research, and various other industries. International law involves the negotiation and enforcement of agreements between countries that may not share the same legal standards, both in criminal and civil capacities.

Norway (Norge) is the westernmost, northernmost — and in fact the easternmost — of the three Scandinavian countries. Norway is well known for its amazing and varied scenery. The fjords in the west of the country are long narrow inlets, flanked on either side by tall mountains where the sea penetrates far inland. The ultimate responsibility for the education lies with the Norwegian Ministry of Education and Research.
