On May 17, 1814 the Norwegian Constitution was signed in Eidsvoll.
Norway was not really just Norway at that time we were under Danish rule, Denmark-Norway. And after our constitution we thought we would be a soveraign state but then Sweden did like the thought of being king over Sweden and Norway and so we were under Swedish rule but a bit freer in Sweden-Norway. But in 1905 we got our own
King Haakon and then we really ruled ourselves in a parlamentary monarchy.
