What are the names of Norway's ethnic groups?

Answer 1

Ethnic Norwegians are the largest group. The other main group native to Norway are the Sami, also known as Lapps. There are also many Finns and Jews.

Norwegians are considered to be a Norse/North Germanic/Scandinavian people, other Scandinavian peoples (Danes, Swedes and Faroese) are also present in Norway.

Most other ethnic groups in Norway are immigrant groups, who have lived in Norway for less than 100 years. The largest non-Scandinavian European peoples are the Germans and Poles. Pakistanis are the largest "visible minority" (non-White) group in Norway. Pakistanis, Somalis, Vietnamese and Iraqis all have large presences in Norway.

Answer 2

There are two ethnicities in Norway. The first are the Norwegians, which are the native people from Norway. The second is the Sami people in the northern part of the country. This group of people also live in northern Sweden and Finland. They have their own language, flag and national day.

Answer 3

Ethnically, the residents of Norway are predominantly ethnic Norwegians who are of North Germanic / Nordic descent, although there are communities of the Scandinavian native people Sami who settled the area around 8,000 years ago, probably from continental Europe through the Norwegian coast and through Finland along the inland glaciers. The national minorities of Norway include Scandinavian Romani, Roma ("Gypsy"), Jews, and Kvener, as well as a small Finnishcommunity.

In recent years, Norway has become home to increasing numbers of immigrants, foreign workers, and asylum-seekers from various parts of the world (mostly from Europe and Asia). Norway had a steady influx of immigrants from Pakistan, East Asia (mainly the Chinese and Filipinos), Eastern Europe (i.e. Russians from Russia), Southern Europe (Greeks, Albanians from Kosovo, and former Yugoslavians), and Middle Eastern countries (Arabs, especially Iraqis and Palestinians), as well as Somalis, Turks, Moroccans, and some Latin Americans (Chile). After ten Eastern European countries joined the EU in 2004, there has also been an influx of workers from Poland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.
