The Reykjavík Grapevine's Almost Completely True History of Iceland
Season 01: The Alternative History of Iceland
What if Icelanders had settled in North America during the Viking Age? What if Iceland was wiped out by a volcano and the survivors moved to Denmark? What if Iceland had been occupied by the Nazis instead of the Allies? What if the Nordic Countries had united? And what if the economic collapse had been averted?
Listen to historians Valur Gunnarsson and Jón Trausti Sigurðarson talk about Icelandic history as it happened and what could have been.
Produced by Sindri Freyr Steinsson
