Norway is completely atypical for an oil rich country. Iraq, Libya, Saudi Arabia, Russia, Nigeria - these are the baseline for what you can expect if your economy is dominated by oil exports.

Norway is interesting insofar as it is exceptional for not turning into a basket case.

Norway is a small, educated, oil-lucky, well managed "socialist" country whose welfare backbone is a fiercely protected sovereign fund that relies on diversified investments in the capitalisms of the world and thus their correct outer and inner-workings.
