If you are writing about a 'Norwegian sea', you would say die norwegische See, where See is feminine, whereas the German word See can also mean 'lake' if it is masculine.
While Norwegen is the name of the country, the word for a Norwegian person is Norweger for a man and Norwegerin for a woman.
Unlike some other countries in German that require a definite article like 'die Schweiz', Norwegen is used without an article in almost all standard grammatical constructions.
