King Haakon VIII takes an oath to defend the Constitution and adopts the motto that comes from his great-grandfather: "Everything for Norway"

SAPO1 September 2026 at 13:37

King Haakon VIII swore to defend the Norwegian Constitution in a ceremony that marks the official formalization of his reign. The oath was taken following the death of his father, Harald V, which occurred on August 28, when Haakon assumed the throne.

Haakon adopted the motto "Everything for Norway," a phrase that dates back to his great-grandfather, thereby establishing a symbolic continuity with the Norwegian royal lineage.

The oath ceremony represents the formal ratification of Haakon's position as king, although Norway has not held coronations since 1908, following a republican tradition within the monarchy that favors the constitutional oath over coronation rituals.

"Life has not been easy at all": Carla was a single mother, went back to work at 78 and at 101 she remains "passionate" about fashion

Carla Villa, an Italian woman of 101 about to turn 102, shared her life story marked by challenges and overcoming. She was a single mother in 1967, at a time of strong social prejudices, and raised her son Thomas alone with the support of her family. She lost her brother Aldo in World War II, in the battle of the Don, in Russia. At the age of 78, she went back to work in the same space in Milan where she had previously managed an antique shop for 18 years, temporarily replacing an employee in a bridal dress shop.
