Solution

The correct option is C Norway
A natural phenomenon that occurs in the summer months in places north of the Arctic Circle or south of the Antarctic Circle in which the sun remains visible at the local midnight is known as the midnight sun. This happens on 21 June in northern hemisphere and on 22 December in southern hemisphere. Norway is called the Land of the Midnight Sun because the sun never dips entirely below the horizon between late May and late July.
