Norway
Norway stayed outside the EU but sits inside the single market through the EEA, and Europe leans on it hard. Norwegian gas became the EU's main supply after 2022, and the oil wealth behind it built the world's largest sovereign fund.
Kongsberg's missiles and air-defence systems guard European skies, Mowi farms more salmon than anyone, and nearly every new car sold in Norway is electric. Helly Hansen, Norrøna and Bergans come from a country that lives outdoors; Vipps and Kahoot! carry the software flag.
