| ARTICLES RELATED TO 1349 | | | |  1349: Encyclopedia II - Norway - DemographicsThe Norwegian population is 4.6 million and increases by 0.4% per year (estimate July 2004). Ethnically most Norwegians are Nordic / North Germanic, while small minorities in the north are Finnish (see also Cwen). The Sami are instead considered an indigenous people, and traditionally live in the Northern parts of Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia. The largest concentration of Sami people is, however, found in the Norwegian capital of Oslo.
In recent years, immigration has accounted for more than half the population growth, and 7.9% ...

| | | | | 1349: Encyclopedia II - Serbian language - Serbian literature Main article: Serbian literature
Serbian literature emerged in the Middle Ages, and included such works as Miroslavljevo jevanđelje (The Gospel of Miroslav) in 1192 and Dušanov zakonik (Dušan's Code) in 1349. Little secular mediæval literature has been preserved, but what there is shows that it was in accord with its time; for example, Serbian Alexandride, a book about Alexander the Great, and a ...

| | | | | 1349: Encyclopedia II - Sarbadars - Government The Sarbadars are unique among the major contenders in post-Ilkhanid Persia in that none of their leaders ruled as legitimate sovereigns. None of them had a legitimate claim to the Ilkhanid throne, or were related to a Mongol or any other royal house, and none of them had previously held a high post within the Ilkhanate. While they on occasion recognized claimants to the Ilkhanid throne as their overlord, they did so purely as a matter of convenience, and in all other aspects they had no ties to the Ilkhanate. This fact had a strong influence regarding the ...

| | | | | 1349: Encyclopedia II - John of Ruysbroeck - After death John's relics were carefully preserved and his memory honoured as that of a saint. When Groenendaal Priory was suppressed by Joseph II in 1783, his relics were transferred to St. Gudule's, Brussels, where, however, they were lost during the French Revolution. John was beatified on December 1, 1908, by Pope St. Pius X.
No authentic portrait of John is known to exist; but the traditional picture represents him in the canonical habit, seated in the forest with his writing tablet on his knee, as he was in fact found one day by the brethren—rapt in ecstasy and enveloped in flames, which encircle wit ...

North Province Cameroon - Settlement patterns.
The North Province is moderately populated, averaging 12 to 25 people per km² in most areas. This density jumps to 25 to 50 people in the river valleys west of the Lagdo Reservoir and in the Bénoué Depression. North of Garoua and in the Mandara Mountains, where large populations of non-Muslim Kirdi were forced to flee years ago, density peaks at 50 to 100 people per km². Due to the major port located there, Garoua was at one point Cameroon's third largest city, t ...

Medieval music - Early chant traditions.
Chant (or plainsong) is a monophonic sacred form which represents the earliest known music of the Christian church. The Jewish Synagogue tradition of singing psalms was a strong influence on Christian chanting.
Chant developed separately in several European centers. The most important were Rome, Spain, Gaul, Milan, and Ireland. These chants were all developed to support the regional liturgies used when celebrating the Mass there. Each area developed its own chants a ...

| | | | | 1349: Encyclopedia II - Black metal - Characteristics Black metal may have the following characteristics:
Fast guitars with tremolo picking
Lyrics that take the form of Satanic, Pagan, or occult themes which blaspheme Christianity. Bands such as Slayer, Landser, Deicide, Death's Head, and Immolation overlap lyrically with black metal somewhat, but are musically defined as death metal (Immolation, Deicide), thrash metal (Death's Head, Slayer), or Rock Against Communism (RAC) (Landser, Intimidation One).

| | | | | 1349: Encyclopedia II - Serbian language - Morphology
Serbian language - Cases.
There are seven cases in Serbian: nominative, genitive, dative, accusative, vocative, instrumental and locative. This, in concert with a non-fixed word-order, can make Serbian difficult to learn for speakers of languages without a strong case system. In Serbian, the sentence "Anna loves Philip" can therefore variously be expressed thus:
Ana voli Filipa
Filipa voli Ana
Ana Filipa voli
Filipa Ana voli

| | | | | 1349: Encyclopedia II - Norway - Politics Norway is a constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary system of government.
The Royal House is a branch of the princely family of Glücksburg, originally from Schleswig-Holstein in Germany. [1] The functions of the King, Harald V, are mainly ceremonial, but he has influence as the symbol of national unity. Although the constitution of 1814 grants important executive powers to the King, these are almost always exercised by the Council of State in the name of the King (King's Council, or cabinet). The reserve powers vested in the Mon ...

Serbian language - Vowels.
The Serbian vowel system is simple, with only five vowels. All vowels are monophthongs. The oral vowels are as follows:
Serbian language - Consonants.
The consonant system is more complicated, and its characteristic features are series of affricate and palatal consonants. As in English, voicedness is phonemic, but aspiration is not.
In consonant clusters all consonants are either voiced or voiceless. All the consonants are voiced (if the last c ...

| | | | | 1349: Encyclopedia II - History of Bavaria - The Kingdom Immediately after the first peace of Paris (1814), Bavaria ceded to Austria Tirol and Vorarlberg; during the Congress of Vienna it was decided that she was to add to these the greater part of Salzburg and the districts of the Inn and Hausruck, receiving as compensation, besides Würzburg and Aschaffenburg, the Palatinate on the left bank of the Rhine and certain districts of Hesse and of the former abbacy of Fulda. But with the collapse of France the old fears and jealousies against Austria revived in full force, and Bavaria only agreed to t ...

| | | | | | 1349: Encyclopedia II - History of England - The Anglo-Saxon Conquest of Celtic Britain In the wake of the Romans, who had abandoned the south of the island by 410 in order to concentrate on more pressing difficulties closer to home, what is now England was progressively settled by successive and often complementary waves of Germanic tribesmen.
These Germanic tribes first came when they were invited by Vortigern, King of the Britons, as mercenaries to help the Britons during their wars against the Irish and the Picts.
The prevailing view is that waves of Germanic people, Jutes together with undoubtedly large numbe ...

| | | | | 1349: Encyclopedia II - Hanseatic League - Lists of former Hanse cities In the list that follows, the role of these foreign merchant companies in the functioning of the city that was their host, in more than one sense is, as Fernand Braudel pointed out in The Perspective of the World, a telling criterion of the status of that city: "If he rules the roost in a given city or region, the foreign merchant is a sign of the [economic] inferiority of that city or region, compared with the economy of which he is the emissary or representative." It is worthy of note that several women were Deputy Aldermen of the H ...

William ordered the compilation of the Domesday Book, a survey of the entire population and their lands and property for tax purposes.
The English Middle Ages were to be characterised ...

| | | | | 1349: Encyclopedia II - History of England - Tudor England The Wars of the Roses culminated in the eventual victory of the relatively unknown Henry Tudor, Henry VII, at the Battle of Bosworth Field in 1485, where the Yorkist Richard III was slain, and the succession of the Lancastrian House was ultimately assured. Whilst in retrospect it is easy for us to date the end of the Wars of the Roses to the Battle of Bosworth Field, Henry VII could afford no such complacency. Before the end of his reign, two pretenders would try to wrest the throne from him, aided by remnants of the Yorkist faction at home ...

| | | | | 1349: Encyclopedia II - History of England - Religious Conflict and the Civil War A number of assassination attempts were made on the Protestant King James I, notably the Main Plot and Bye Plots of 1603, and most famously, on 5th November 1605, the Gunpowder Plot, by a group of Catholic conspirators, led by Guy Fawkes, which was stoked up and served as further fuel for antipathy in England to the Catholic faith.
The First English Civil War broke out in 1642, largely as a result of an ongoing series of conflicts between the then King, Charles I, and Parliament. The defeat of the Royalist army by the New Model Army o ...

| | | | | 1349: Encyclopedia II - Gentleman - Modern usage The word "gentleman" as an index of rank had already become of doubtful value before the great political and social changes of the 19th century gave to it a wider and essentially higher significance. The change is well illustrated in the definitions given in the successive editions of the Encyclopædia Britannica. In the 5th edition (1Sf 5) "a gentleman is one, who without any title, bears a coat of arms, or whose ancestors have been freemen". In the 7th edition (1845) it still implies a definite social status: "All above the rank of ...

| | | | | 1349: Encyclopedia II - Gentleman - A line between classes A frontier line between classes so indefinite could not be maintained, especially as in England there was never a "nobiliary prefix" to stamp a person as a gentleman by his surname, as in France or Germany. The process was hastened, moreover, by the corruption of the Heralds' College and by the ease with which coats of arms could be assumed without a shadow of claim; which tended to bring the science of armory into contempt.
The prefix "de" attached to some English names is in no sense "nobiliary". In Latin documents de was the ...
