Country on the Western coast of the Scandinavian peninsula. Vikings from Norway settled Iceland, Shetland, and the Faroes, which therefore became skattlande (tributary lands) of the Norwegian king. Joined by the Union of Kalmar in 1397 to Denmark and Sweden, it became a de facto province of Denmark at the dissolution of the union in 1523.
