Research and discover, (page 85 in Stunt)

1. Already back in the 900th, people started to immigrate to Norway. The first who came were slaves, craftsmen, merchants and mercenaries. The Traveler and the Roman immigrated to Norway in the 1600th. And in the 1900th a lot of peoples in Europe came to Norway as immigrant workers. After the second world war, people from Turkey, Morocco and later Asia immigrated to Norway as immigrant workers. In 1975, the rules got more strict and Norway shot down their doors for the immigration. Just people with deportation, fugitives and persons who had family connection in Norway had the chance to immigrate to Norway. Now as the conflict in Syria is in progress and with over a million on escape, Norway have to bend their critical limiting. Thousands of Syrian fugitives have approached Norway and Britain, and more are on their way.

 

2. The immigrants that come to Norway is often people from Europe, but also from Asia. A big part of the immigrants in Britain have emigrated from Africa, but also from Asia. Most immigrants live in the south of Britain. The immigrants in Norway live at Greenland in Oslo. Today, Britain contains of more than 45 000 Africans and 25 000 Asians. The Poles (more than 100 000 people), the Lithuanian (more than 40 000 people) and the Swedish (more than 40 000 people) are the peoples who have immigrated the most to Norway. Today both Britain and Norway have to take care of Syrian fugitives.

1. A day at the golf course

My friends and I went to the golf course in England. It wasn`t any golf course, it was the our at the castle. We drove the golfcar around the halls and made our own golf course. We slided down the halls at the red and soft carpet. The golf course was made out of cups, lego and sticks. We used the vacuum cleaner to gather all the golf bals at the end. Of course something got broken, but at least we had fun.

 

2. Many decisions formerly taken in London are now taken in the parliaments in Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast. The United Kingdom is less united than ever, but that may also prove to be its strength. This has taken the democracy in The United Kingdom to a new level, and peoples within The UK may feel more like a part of something. Earlier, when the decisions where formerly taken in London, the other peoples just had to consent and follow the rules by London. Now someone in their own community can stand up for the rest and hopefully do a good job. This is also a good thing for The United Kingdom, cause now the other peoples within The UK have gotten more "power", then it`s more unlikely for the countries to gain their independence. The UK will never die and countries as Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast never have to feel less again.
