「tea.leaf」 Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 Norway has the second highest GDP per capita in the world. Since they're up north, do you think they play hockey like the Canadians? Let's talk about Norway. EDIT: Maps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest PikaPerson01 Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 sorry but wat is GDP..??? Gross domestic product. In simplest terms, it's the amount of money a country has in a year. GDP per capita is the GDP divided by the population, to get the average income per household. Also, IIRC, America has the highest GDP, though my own sources are probably outdated, and you gotta understand those multimillionaires like Gates tend to throw off the average. GDP isn't equivalent to standard of living. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psycho Shocker Android Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 It's a good country and the land is beautiful but I prefer switzerland (hotter over there). They play hockey but they aren't that good. I don't know about the girls though. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norwayfor more info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Void Old Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 Norway is hopeless at hockey, Finland and Sweden however, the two neighboring countries, are even better than Canada now. =D But yeah, there isn't even a Norwegian Olympic hockey team, and Finland and Sweden made the finals, Canada lagged being and lost to some surprising teams like Switzerland, which was considered a horrible hockey team, but did fairly well. GP = Games played (Column 1 of numbers in charts below.)W = Wins (Column 2 of numbers in charts below.)L = Losses (Column 3 of numbers in charts below.)T = Ties (Column 4 of numbers in charts below.)GF = Goals For (Column 5 of numbers in charts below.)GA = Goals Against (Column 6 of numbers in charts below.)PTS = Points (2 for a win, 1 for a tie, and 0 for a loss.)

Group ATeam FIN 5 5 0 0 19 2 10 SWI 5 2 1 2 10 12 6 CAN 5 3 2 0 15 9 6 CZE 5 2 3 0 14 12 4 GER 5 0 3 2 7 16 2 ITA 5 0 3 2 9 23 2 FIN=Finland, SWI=Switzerland, CAN=Canada, CZE=Czech Republic, GER=Germany, ITA=Italy Group B SVK 5 5 0 0 18 8 10 RUS 5 4 1 0 23 11 8 SWE 5 3 2 0 15 12 6 USA 5 1 3 1 13 13 3 KAZ 5 1 4 0 9 18 2 LAT 5 0 4 1 11 29 1 SVK=Slovakia. RUS=Russia SWE=Sweden KAZ=Kazakhstan. USA=America LAT=Latvia The last two teams in each division didn't qualify for the final tournament-ish part. (Germany, Italy, Kazakhstan, and Latvia.) Tournament Round 1 (Quarter-Finals) Czech Republic (3) vs Slovakia (1) Sweden (6) vs Switzerland (2) Canada (0) vs Russia (2) USA (3) vs Finland (4) Round 2 (Semi-Finals) Czech Republic (3) vs Sweden (7) Russia (0) vs Finland (4) Gold Medal Match (Finals) Finland (2) vs Sweden (3) - Sweden wins Gold Medal. Finland wins Silver. Bronze Medal Match Czech Republic (3) vs Russia (0) - Czech Republic wins Bronze Medal. And that's how it happened. However, at last year's IIHF (International Ice Hockey Federation Competition) Russia got 1sr, Canada got 2nd, Finland Got 3rd, and Sweden 4th Norway participated in this one, but didn't do too well. =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
