A question like this to a Swede is equivalent to handing a hot-red poker to a sadist.

The only reason I even care about Norway is because of their depressing and awesome music. "Viking death metal" is one of my top 3 favorite musical styles in existence. Amon Amarth is one of my favorite bands, though, they are from Sweden. Same thing as far as I am concerned. I love Norway because of their early promising history and the equally inspirational and depressing music it has inspired.

I assumed dimmu borgir was from sweden. I do like Dimmu for their modern blast beats and profesional musisicans. I haven't heard one mayhem song; though, I have heard the name. I am just not cool enough to know what they are all about.

I've never been there but I have many Norwegian friends. They are inspiring, spirited, humorous and hard working fellows. I can respect and enjoy that and stupidly presume that I would meet many other such people if I went there. In conclusion: I have no reason to dislike Norway.
EDIT: Norwegian politics, literature, film, food and others are well received and respected by me too, inclining me more towards 'like' than 'no reason to dislike'.

Basically, those 2 things make me dislike it. Other stuff about it is ok.

It also gets bonus points in my books because it reminds me of Canada in a lot of ways, and not just the climate. I think that the national psyche of the two countries are similar, although that's difficult to explain...
