Norwegian government

Norway has a parliamentary democracy with a constitutional monarchy, meaning the King is a ceremonial figure while elected officials govern. The government is led by the Prime Minister, who heads the Executive branch, and is supported by a cabinet of ministers. The Parliament (Storting) is the legislative body, representing citizens and passing laws. Power is divided into executive, legislative, and judicial branches, ensuring checks and balances. Norway values transparency, consensus, and social welfare, with political decisions influenced by a multi-party system that emphasizes cooperation across different groups.
