Norgelaw

The Northumbrian Norgelaw (Old Gothic: Noregurlög), also simply called Northumbria (Old Gothic: Norðurhymbra) by its inhabitants, is a theology located in the northern part of Britannia Superior. It was founded by the Prophet Fellman Heimisson following his exile from the Kingdom of Svealand. As such, the Norgelaw acts as a new holy land for the prophet's Cult of the Ragnarokic.

History
The Norgelaw's history begins with the arrival of the Prophet Fellman Heimisson accompanied by the Cult of the Ragnarokic landing at a notably barren spot situated in the northeastern fringe of Northumbria, where the mouth of a river empties into the North Sea. Here, the followers of the Prophet founded the city of Heimissonbygð. From there, the Cult of the Ragnarokic continued expanding in northeastern Northumbria and managed to establish a stable theological state, with hundreds of people quickly finding themselves attracted to these new settlements and, most importantly, the Ragnarokic religion, so close to their own but so foreign as well. This immediately caught the watch of the Northumbrian Danelaw, which had already established itself as a kingdom unopposed in the whole of Northumbria. The ruler of the Danelaw demanded that Prophet Fellman Heimisson and his followers leave their settlements and return home. When Heimisson rejected his demands, war was declared.

First Northumbrian War
The Norgelaw, never seeing the need for such a thing until this moment, had to swiftly mobilize an army for war. Likewise for the Danelaw, which had since demobilized their armies after having conquered Northumbria. The first few weeks of the First Northumbria War were simply spent by both sides with the production of equipment and the enlistment and quick training of soldiers.

A cheap and effective ranged weapon that was quickly fielded by both sides was the longbow. Archers of the Danelaw and the Norgelaw swiftly adapted to use with the longbow and became almost renown for its use on Britannia Superior during and after the war.
