Sudreim
Sudreim claim is an entitlement to the Throne of the Kingdome Norway held among members of the powerful and influential House of Sudreim and House of Rosensverd in Norway since the late Middle Ages. Background When in the early 14th century it was foreseeable that the male line of Sverre dynasty would go extinct, Norwegian lords spiritual and temporal arranged the Order of succession of the kingdom together with the then king, Haakon V of Norway. King Haakon's youngest daughter, Ingeborg Haakonsdatter instead of her older sister Princess Agnes Haakonsdatter received recognized rights of succession to the Kingdom of Norway (872–1397) for her descendants. This entitlement came to be referred to as the Stovreim claim (''Stovreimsætten''). In the eventuality of the Ingeborg line dying out, it was determined that the issue of King Haakon's illegitimate daughter, Agnes Haakonsdatter, born to her in marriage to Havtore Jonsson (ca. 1275–1319) would then be entitled to successi ...

Agnes Haakonsdatter
Princess Agnes Haakonsdatter of Norway (Old Norse: ''Agnes Hákonardottir''; 1290 – 1319) was the oldest daughter of King Haakon V of Norway by Gro Sigurdsdatter, daughter of Sigurd Lodinsson and wife Baugeid Steinarsdatter and as such the prime heir. However, as King Haakon had somehow forgotten to officially marry her mother, prior to arranging Princess Agnes' conception, it was eventually decided that for political concerns, Princess Agnes and her descendants were moved 1 level down of the list of inheritance and her younger sister Ingeborg Haakonsdatter was moved 1 step up on the list inheritance. This meant that the Norwegian Throne would be passed through her younger sister Ingeborg Haakonsdatter, but that Princess Agness and her descendants remained the rightful heirs to the throne, if Ingeborg's line failed. Biography In 1302, Agnes married Havtore Jonsson, Baron (1275 – 1320). He was son of Jon Ivarsson Raud (ca. 1245 – ca. 1312) of the Sudreim Clan (''Su ...

At the peak of Norwegian expansion before the civil war (1130–1240), Sigurd I led the Norwegian Crusade (1107–1110). The crusaders won battles in Lisbon ...

Hird
The hird (also named "Håndgangne Menn" in Norwegian), in Scandinavian history, was originally an informal retinue of personal armed companions, hirdmen or housecarls, but came to mean not only the nucleus ('Guards') of the royal army, but also developed into a more formal royal court household. Etymology The term comes from Old Norse ''hirð'', (meaning Herd) again from either Old English ''hir(e)d'' 'household, family, retinue, court'See for instance, 'hirð' in Cleasby-Vigfusson, ''Icelandic-English Dictionary''online copy/ref> or perhaps the old German cognate ''heirat'' 'marriage', both of which can mean "body of men" or more directly linked to the term for hearthguard, or men of one's own home and hearth.
