Lore
==== The Kingdom of Norway was founded way before the Franks had established their kingdom as petty kings following a pagan religion (Norse) and the person who conquered and united the land was a viking named Harald Fairhair and established the Hakonson Dynasty of Norway. ====

The Norwegians still held with their Viking traditions raiding civilized Catholic Western Europe and discovering Iceland, Greenland, and accidentally Vinland which most Norwegians settle but Norway found the project of getting people on this mysterious land was very expensive so they abandoned it aswell as Greenland and since they were pagan and were outcast of the now majority Catholic Western Europe, they still held maps about this mysterious land.

Centuries past with many viking leaders dying and the most ambitious one was Harold V of Norway who had ambitions on the English mainland which had developed a strategy to get a foothold on the British Isles which they waged a quick war on scotland in 908 seizing the Inner Herbides and the faroe Islands for a base of operations and waited for the perfect time to attack

Luckly, Edgar III of England died which he had not chosen a male heir and 6 of his sons were fighting over the English Crown and made the Kingdom split into their respective region of Mercia, Essex, Wessex, and Northumberland.

Harold V died 3 months after the collapse of England and his son Harold VI who was a fierce warrior completed his vision by finally attacking the small weak Anglo Saxon Kingdoms establishing Viking rule over England for the next 400 year.

Edward who was the 2nd eldest Son of Edgar III had defeated his remaining brothers and reunified most of England and fought Harold VI at the battle of Hampshire and won with Hill tactics.

The peace of Westaxe was signed where Harold VI had to give back many territories that Harold VI siezed and a truce for 30 years because England was very Financially unstable

Harold VI and his army had left England in shambles and raped many poor Englishman and many warriors stayed in Anglo Saxon controlled England

Edwards grandson Æthelred had came into power in 996 and had distrusted the vikings and the Norwegians where exauhsted of fighting Novgorod for Finn mark and he decided to capture Norwegian controlled Hull which Harold and started mass genocide against the viking settlers which enraged the Danish King and invaded England and capture Æthelred and beheaded him in 1016

Harold Haldrada siezed control over Norway and the Danish overlords of Englan d offered him the crown which he said yes with more manpower and land to combat the New Catholic Kingdom of Sweden but Aethelred Son Edward V usurped the crown and he waged war against him and he met him at the battle of Hull which he was defeated and mortally wounded and died 2 days later of returning to Norway and signed a white peace and Norway had to give Hull to Denmark because they see them as a powerful kingdom that defeated England unlike them.

In 1444, they start out with their original possessions of the faroes and the inner Herbicides and can they restore the North Sea Empire?

Norway still has not received any unique government type like Sweden but with the Norse Religion, they can raid coasts (they are buggy)

Their National Traditions are like in the base game but the tradition (Write New Sagas makes the discipline go higher +5% than the base games +2.5%)
