In the far north and at high elevations, tundra predominates. Abundant wildlife inhabits the forests, and both freshwater and saltwater fish abound in the lakes and coastal waters. Norway's principal mineral resources are petroleum and natural gas, extracted from vast reserves in the North Sea.

Population
Norway is ethnically homogenous, and apart from several thousand Saami and Finns in North Norway, the country has no other significant minority groups. Norway has about 4,300,000 people. Bergen is the cultural center of western Norway as same as Riga in Latvia, and it is the second-largest city.…
