Fridtjof Nansen Land
Fridtjof Nansen Land ( no, Fridtjof Nansens Land) was a suggested but not officially adopted Norwegian name of a territory on the southern East Coast of Greenland, that was proclaimed by Norway on July 12, 1932, and occupied until April 5, 1933. It was named after Norwegian polar explorer Fridtjof Nansen. The short-lived territory occupied much of King Frederick VI Coast, which had been claimed a century before by the Danish crown. The main settlements of the territory were Finnsbu in the north, with Trollbotn and Vogtsbu nearby, and Torgilsbu in the south. Fridtjof Nansen Land was also a proposed name of the archipelago Franz Josef Land, a territory to which Norway had claims.Barr, Susan (1995). ''Franz Josef Land'', p. 95.

Diplomatic Recognition
Diplomatic recognition in international law is a unilateral declarative political act of a state that acknowledges an act or status of another state or government in control of a state (may be also a recognized state). Recognition can be accorded either on a ''de facto'' or ''de jure'' basis. Recognition can be a declaration to that effect by the recognizing government or may be implied from an act of recognition, such as entering into a treaty with the other state or making a state visit. Recognition may, but need not, have domestic and international legal consequences. If sufficient countries recognise a particular entity as a state, that state may have a right to membership in international organizations, while treaties may require all existing member countries unanimously agreeing to the admission of a new member. A vote by a country in the United Nations in favour of the membership of another country is an implicit recognition of that country by the country so voting, as on ...

Administratively the area were the hut stood belongs now to the Kujalleq municipality. The station was located on the northern shore of the head of Nanuuseq Fjord, formerly known as ''Oyfjord''. There was an anchorage in the fjord near the station. History In 1931 Norway sent two expeditions to establish hunting and radio stations in Southeast Greenland. Led by Ole Mortensen, one of the expeditions went to Storfjord (Kangerlussuaq Fjord) on ship ''Signalhorn'' and built a hut there. Since hunting there was poor, Mortensen moved with his men to Lindenow Fjord, where a Norwegian radio and meteorological station named Moreton was built from the mouth of the fjord in 1932. Meanwhile another Norwegian station was built in Thorland and named Finnsbu. In the same year Norway staked sovereignty claims in Southeast Greenland betwee ...

Denmark–Norway Relations
Denmark and Norway have a very long history together: they were both part of the Kalmar Union between 1397 and 1523, and Norway was in a Union with Denmark between 1524 and 1814. The two countries established diplomatic relations in 1905, after Norway ended its union with Sweden. Denmark has an embassy in Oslo and Norway has an embassy in Copenhagen. Both countries are full members of the Nordic Council, Council of the Baltic Sea States, NATO, OECD, OSCE, Arctic Council, Council of Europe and the World Trade Organization. There are around 15,000 Norwegians living in Denmark and around 20,000 Danes living in Norway. Early history Relations date back to the Middle Ages, when both countries were first established in the 8th-9th century. Denmark took part in the Battle of Svolder against Norway in 999 or 1000, and in the following partition of Norway.

Former Norwegian Colonies
A former is an object, such as a template, gauge or cutting die, which is used to form something such as a boat's hull. Typically, a former gives shape to a structure that may have complex curvature. A former may become an integral part of the finished structure, as in an aircraft fuselage, or it may be removable, being using in the construction process and then discarded or re-used. Aircraft formers Formers are used in the construction of aircraft fuselage, of which a typical fuselage has a series from the nose to the empennage, typically perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft. The primary purpose of formers is to establish the shape of the fuselage and reduce the column length of stringers to prevent instability. Formers are typically attached to longerons, which support the skin of the aircraft. The "former-and-longeron" technique (also called stations and stringers) was adopted from boat construction, and was typical of light aircraft built until the ad ...

History Of Franz Josef Land
Franz Josef Land, an uninhabited archipelago located in the Arctic Ocean, Barents Sea and Kara Sea, may have been discovered by the 1865 expedition of the Norwegian sealing vessel ''Spidsbergen'' captained by Nils Fredrik Rønnbeck. However, the discovery was never announced and the existence of the territory only came to public notice following the Austro-Hungarian North Pole Expedition of 1872, which named the archipelago in honor of Franz Joseph I of Austria. Benjamin Leigh Smith led the next expedition in 1880, which continued the work of the first expeditions in investigating the southern and central parts of the archipelago. Concurrent expeditions followed in 1896, Nansen's ''Fram'' expedition and the Jackson–Harmsworth Expedition, which met by accident. These two journeys explored the northern area and the flanks of Franz Josef Land. The next series of expeditions used the archipelago as a base for attempts to reach the North Pole. The first, carried out by Walter We ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
