Democracy is stable but it only works in a homogeneous society other wise it becomes corrupted and used against the native population look at the Us ,Uk,and Scandinavian countries etc
Norway? It's probably the most beautiful country in the world and occupies a famously prolific position on the HDI but one of the things I found incredibly bemusing about The Donald's shithole scandal and mock "Why would Norwegians come here?" responses is how oblivious people were to the fact that prior to the discovery of its North Sea petroleum reserves in the 1960s and building of its trillion-dollar wealth fund, Norway wasn't exactly all that and people couldn't jump ship to America by multiple millions fast enough. It's goofy hypocrisy and unearned smugness.
And then to pretend the country in its wealthy, contemporary form is some kind of welcoming immigration hotspot akin to borderline self-loathing Sveden? You've gotta be fucking kidding me. A right-wing - for Europe - party is part of the current government coalition with the Conservatives and has a 'controversial' Immigration Minister (below) that doesn't think a whole lot of Moslems and other assorted brownies. Norway rejects and cracks down hard on economic migrants and throws out undocumented immigrants posthaste. You need to bring money, skills or both to the table at the least to take up residence there. It took in a whopping 2,000 refugees in 2017.
Dunno if that caricaturization is fair though.
