Though Ivar the Boneless predates the Norse colony there by over a century.

It's Iceland, not Greenland.

Yup.

Yes, they named it Iceland, which was the world's worst marketing choice, because it made the land sound cold and bleak. No one wanted to go there. When the discovered the other place, they learned from their mistake and named it Greenland.

iceland, the only place where the magma meets the surface of the planet.

i'm thinking the first voyage landed on iceland. Odin played a funny joke.

anyway, Floki is being sacrificed, to be reborn in Westworld. He looks a bit different. Doesn't laugh the same.
