I am an Icelander who would like to know more about my peoples history and the history of other viking worlds.
Any anons here well versed in the world of viking culture?

If you are interested then i would not recommend asking someone here, for general information rather read some books on it.

A History of the Vikings by Gwyn Jones

The Impact of the Scandinavian Invasions on the Celtic Speaking Peoples by Brian Cuiv

and Viking Age Iceland by Jesse Byock

those are pretty good.
>>
The sagas themselves are also a wonderful way to learn about them.

Not entirely wrong but

>>forced to convert to Christianity by a Norwegian King (but some people remained polytheist in secret) and remain irrelevant until the volcano erupts and causes flight delays

Slightly more accurate.
