The Norwegian constitution was enacted on Eidsvoll the 17th of May 1814 after being in union with Denmark for 400 long years. But the Norwegian king had to surrender the throne to Sweden on the 10th of October 1814, with just a few months of freedom. During the union with Denmark, Norway had to use the Danish flag, and in 1818 the Swedish king decided that Norway should use the Swedish flag, only with a white cross on red background in the upper left corner. The Norwegians didn't give up so easily, and they fought for their own flag. In 1821 Fredrik Meltzer designed the flag that is still known as the Norwegian flag. Mix of the Danish and Swedish flag, Norway formed their very own symbol. But the Swedish king denied to approve the flag unless it had the Swedish flag as a union symbol in the upper left corner. This decision faced major resistance and in 1898 the Norwegians finally were allowed to use the flag without the union symbol. When the union between Norway and Sweden ended in 1905 the flag was officially accepted as The Norwegian Flag. Eidsvoll is based on the colors in the Norwegian flag. On the chest there is a Norwegian flag waving in the wind, the way the Norwegians like to see it. Eidsvoll is also equipped with a ski zip holder in the pocket.
