In addition, Norway borders Finland and Russia. Norwegian territory also includes Svalbard and Jan Mayen, the capital of Oslo. Since 200 1, Norway has been rated as the most livable country by the United Nations for six consecutive years.

Norway is mountainous, and more than half of its land area is mountainous at an altitude of more than 500 meters. Scandinavian mountains run through the whole territory, and the southernmost watershed of the mountains is called "Changling", which is a plateau area with an average altitude of 1000 meters or more. To the north of Changling, the mountain range rises gradually and reaches its peak at the inner end of Songgen Fjord.

Norway is surrounded by the sea on three sides, from north to west to south, followed by Barents Sea, Norwegian Sea and North Sea. Because there are many fjords in Norway, the coastline curve of Norway is as long as 2 1000 km. Abundant marine resources have greatly increased Norway's fishery production. Norway has always been one of the largest fishing countries in the world and one of the three largest seafood exporters in the world.
