Norway is known as the "Land of Ten Thousand Islands". Why does this small country have so many islands?

Norway’s land area is not large, but it has many islands. It is known as the "country of ten thousand islands", with as many as 150,000 islands. Norway is able to have such a large number of islands mainly due to its geographical location.

Norway has a higher latitude and the continent was once covered by glaciers. As the ice forms deep within the soil, it cuts the soil in half. After the ice melted, cracks suddenly appeared. It was the joining of countless pieces of ice that caused the surface of the land to break. It is under such forces that the coastal areas of Norway are continuously divided, eventually forming a large number of islands.

Norway is located in the northwest of Europe, with the Norwegian Sea to the west. It is precisely because Norway is close to the sea that it can have such a large number of islands. If Norway was a landlocked country with no sea around it, it would obviously be impossible to have islands. It is precisely because Norway is so close to the ocean that it has so many islands.

Norway has a long and narrow coastline. Beyond the narrow coastline are dotted islands. Norway's long coastline provides the prerequisite for having many islands. Norway's coastline is quite tortuous, and the continuous and tortuous Norwegian coastline creates conditions for the creation of islands.

Norway’s geographical conditions determine that Norway has beautiful natural fjords and islands. Norway's tourism industry continues to grow as a result. If you travel to Norway, you can not only enjoy the beautiful aurora and the unpredictable changes in the night sky, but also enjoy the many beautiful fjords and feel the charm of nature. You can also experience exotic customs by traveling to cities with different styles. As important cities in Norway, Oslo and Bergen are good choices.

As a country of ten thousand islands, Norway is only a small country, but it has a huge number of islands. The beauty of Norway is given by God. If you are lucky enough, you must come to Norway to have a look. While admiring the beautiful islands, you can find yourself and make your life better.
