Note: The question is meant for Swedes and other Scandinavians as well (since Sweden already disestablished its state church,) even though the term "Nordmann" is, as I understand it, usually reserved for Norwegians.

Anyway, with a federal holiday Monday for Pentecost, only two months after the entire nation shut down for Holy Week (just as it did for a week at Christmas) I cannot help wondering how (if at all) disestablishment will affect the number of federal religious holidays here. It is an irony I continue to find striking: America is generally regarded as the industrialized worlds most and Scandinavia its least religious regions. Yet Canada has only four (with Easter and Good Friday apparently an either/or arrangement,) the US only two holidays (Thanksgiving and Christmas Day) and Mexico only one (Christmas Day.) Norway, meanwhile, to have a federal religious holiday every other week, and Sweden likewise has so many the second sentence of the Wikipedia article on them states "The official holidays can be divided into Christian and non-Christian holidays."
