== History ==
The Norwegian monarchy
Norway, Sweden and Denmark had joint monarchs during the [[Kalmar Union]] in the late Middle Ages, and Norway remained in union with Denmark after Sweden [[Swedish War of Liberation|left the union in 1523]]. Following the [[Reformation in Denmark–Norway and Holstein|reformation]] a joint [[Denmark-Norway|Danish-Norwegian state]] was established
Upon becoming independent in 1905, Norway decided through a [[1905 Norwegian monarchy referendum|referendum]] to remain as a monarchy, with its first monarch being the Danish-born [[Haakon VII of Norway|King Haakon VII]], whose family consisted of the British [[Maud of Wales|Princess Maud]] and their son [[Olav V of Norway|Olav]]. It is King Haakon's descendants that today make up the current royal family of Norway.
