america is a different continent. norway is closer to britain. british is the european english. so we learn british. cause it's european and we are europeans. does that explain it?

no that doesn't explain why because most norweigan people don't have british accents but they are still being taught that at school. norweigans talking in english with a norweigan accent sounds closer to "american" accents then they do brittish accent

okay two points
1) american tv. american films. we are constantly hearing american english. so thats how we learn to speak on our own. 
2) we're taught british english words, but the way of speaking depends on the teacher's accent, which can differ

i asked this question earlier but everyone ignored it, but if everyone around you have the same accent why stand out and put on a british accent? most don't talk that way. there is no need to sound brittish if you're not
