I love your regional OCs! What are their relationships with Norway proper like?
Thanks!! 😍 I'm still not entirely sure about Norway's relation to them would be because it wouldn't make sense to make them all his "children" or something like that. So for now they are all just representatives for each region and Norway is the representation of the country in its entirety, not belonging or feeling more connected to a certain part.
Tumblr media
Nord-Norge and Norway has a good relationship as individuals, as they bond over their love for nature, fishing and tough living conditions, but Nord-Norge is often unhappy with all the rules he needs to follow - though this evens out when he pays less tax, so all in all he's very chill about it ✨
Tumblr media
Trøndelag is technically older than Norway, being formed as a region about 400 years before the country of Norway. Because of this Trøndelag is often stubborn in arguments and likes to oppose and complain about decisions Norway makes. Trøndelag probably has the strongest regional identity in the country. If Norway wants to drink and party he goes to Trøndelag.
Tumblr media
Vestlandet and Norway are really good friends and they both like each other a lot! Norway often visits her at the farm and can spend a lot of time there helping her look after the goats and sheep. At night they tell each other stories and fairy-tales and talk about the past.
Tumblr media
Østlandet sometimes think she is Norway and has a tendency to forget the other regions exist. She likes to boss Norway around and insists that he should let her get more responsibilities. They still like each other, but the relationship is complicated.
Tumblr media
Sørlandet has a very chill relationship with Norway and Norway likes him. He is not very strong as a region and tends to be forgotten by the others, but Norway always thinks of him and makes sure to keep him company. Sørlandet is usually very positive and laid-back, just don't bring up religion.

Back with some more Norwegian Regions! ✨
Molde football club had a match against German Bayer Leverkusen in the Europa League last week. Norwegian football teams ending up in group play in Europa League is pretty big and many national newspapers will say that we need to band together as a nation and support the teams that make it. However, everyone hates Molde - especially people from Trøndelag.
So, when I, my German friend who is a fan of Leverkusen, and another friend of us drove to Molde to watch the game, we all rooted for Leverkusen. My friend was a little unsure whether if they should wear their Leverkusen shirt or not - meanwhile I clearly wore the colours of Rosenborg (Trøndelag's football team) and our friend wore Bodø/Glimt (Northern-Norway's best football team) colours and merch.
Shout-out to my friend who said: "this is the beginning of a bad joke; a german, a trønder, and a northerner walk into a Molde game, and all of them support the germans".

There's been some talk about the Norwegian Regions lately, and I decided to do some tweaking of their designs and make an informative map!✨ Might also do an introduction post later...
