The politics of Norgsveldet take in the framework of an parliamentary democracy under a constitutional monarchy. The goverment being divided into three diffrent branches. The King, currently his majesty [[Olav I]] is the head of state. The king holds an mostly symbolic postion that holds some limited powers. The king however has the power to intervene in case of emergency, while the case of emergency was set loosely in the constitution it has been widly accepted in the case of war, or if the grand council (the cabinet) is going against the constitution. The king can also intervene within politics if the grand council allows it. However with most of the case, the monarch is only really ceremonial and symbolic figure. The king also serves as Supreme Commander of the armed forces of Norgsveldet.

The main relgion in Norgsveldet is [[Wikipedia:Old Norse religion|Asatru]] With 50% belonging to Asatru temple of Norgsveldet, 15% beloning to Christianity which 77% of those christians belonging to [[Wikipedia:Lutheranism|Lutheranism]], 20% of Norgsveltian christians follow Catholicism and 3% Orthodoxy. 25% of people don't follow any religion, with the majority of them being agnostic. 10% of all Norgsveltians follow an relative new faith called Norism, a faith that came up in the 1700s first as an idea by christians to convert Asatruars to christianity. The idea was meant to compare the similiarities between Jesus and Odin to convince Asatruars that christianity was just an contiuesation of their own faith. This idea however back fired and ended up making an religion that is an hybrid of both religions.
While Asatru does not have diffrent branches like christianity it does however not have one specific god to follow. While the god Odin is seen as the main god, it is often his son Thor that is frequently prayed to and whorshiped. Which also can be seen with certain people following the religion often wearing [[Wikipedia:Mjölnir|Mjölnir]] as a necklace. In an similare way with the cross being used as necklace.
