" Living under the threat of Norscans all the time, it does something to the Nordlanders. They're half-Norscan themselves."
- – KLAUS VON ROTHSTEIN, OPINIONATED MERCHANT
" This is the tradition of Nordland... Raid! Settle! Raid! Settle! Raid! Settle! Isn't it f**king beautiful? Due to this beautiful tradition... at least 80% of Nordlanders are Norscans "
Not to be confused with the county in Norway, It is the Normandy of the empire. Housing the Imperial Navy, with the hot Viking Blood in veins, they are the empire's great naval power, protecting trade ships and their shores. Nordland is the first line of defense against the Northener's longboat raids.
Ancestry
They were the decedent of the Was Jutones. They did not join initially when Sigmar created his unified empire but was later conquered around 500 years later by Emperor Sigismund II.
Nordland Ancestres has suffered under many conquests, had been vassalized by the Teutogens (ancestors of Middenland), by the empire, and suffer many raids from Norsca, including when they colonized the nation during the Skaven's Great Plague. This is how Nordland gained a heavy mix of Norscan blood and culture.
Cultures and Society
Like any heretical loyal servant of the God Emperor Sigmar, Despite all the right full accusations of purity by the Inquisition Witch Hunters, like any good imperial servants with a spotty history, This only gives Nordlanders greater Zealotry against the enemies of man to prove their devotion.
From their mix blood, they had adopted many Norscan customs slightly filted with emperial decency. Court cases often handled by duels to spell first blood, Runes on old houses for luck, Story telling contests, and will find many longboats on the coast that are not filled with stolen goods and angry barbarians.
