"Norwegians came here and looked it over and then left" us the Minnesota Vikings and Oakland Raiders. The rest of them went home, raided churches, gave thanks to Odin when they discovered oil, and traded it to France, who exploited natives in Haiti and French Guyana for whatever they couldn't steal from the Spanish, who were exploiting everybody the Dutch and English and Germans and Belgians in Africa weren't, and then shared the loot with the church. Once they all got rich, they said, "We didn't do that; exploited natives did. Therefore, all our citizens, not just the king and the bishop, should benefit from exploitation by getting free health care and stuff."
And then, just to be ornery, Israel is a religious state.
