Norwegian Americans  

Definición

  • A high percentage of immigrants from Norway in the mid-1800s and afterward made the United States their primary destination, founding settlements that participated in U.S. culture, while contributing their own traditions to that culture. Today, elements of the culture of Norway, a country with an estimated population of 4.7 million people as of 2007, persist in the United States, while many contemporary Norwegian Americans continue to maintain an enthusiastic attachment to the traditions of their homeland.
