What reading level is Modern And Contemporary European History book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As most of the consuls appointed by the Government were Swedes, Norway demanded an independent consular service. The Storthing several times passed resolutions in favor of this proposition, but the King vetoed them. Finally, on June 7, 1905, the Storthing took a decisive step by unanimously passing a resolution which declared that the union with Sweden was thereby dissolved. The question now was whether the latter would permit Norway to secede or whether she would try to compel her to stay in t...he Union. For a time it looked like civil war, but in the end better coun- sel prevailed. It was decided to allow the Norwegian people to settle their own national destiny through a plebiscite.
When this was held, the result showed an almost unani- mous vote in favor of independence, as only one hundred Independ- ^^^ eighty-four votes were cast against it. Ence of Nor- Sweden was chagrined, but she loyally accepted ^^^ the outcome. Norway thereupon became an independent nation, and she chose as her King, Prince Charles, the second son of King Frederick VIII of Den- mark, who was crowned on June 22, 1906, as Haakon VII, successor to Haakon VI, the last independent King of Norway.
