==Religion== {{Main|Religion in Norway}} The [[Lutheran]] [[Church of Norway]] is the former state church and the vast majority remain at least nominal members. Other religions do, however, enjoy religious freedom and have prospered with immigration in recent years, particularly [[Islam]] and [[Roman Catholic Church|Roman Catholicism]]. [[Saint Olaf]] is the patron saint of Norway. He is regarded by some as the eternal king and has a reputation and place in history unchallenged by any other Norwegian King for the last 1000 years. {| class="wikitable" |- ! Religion ! Members !
