I've been wondering for a while about the Yvling dynasty in the demo, which King Svend of Denmark seems to be part of. I know a bit of Danish history myself and didn't recall any dynasty of that name.
Upon further research I've found no evidence that this dynasty ever existed, which left me bewildered:huh: I've simply found no trace of the House Yvling or any similar spellings of the name. So my question is; why is the dynasty called Yvling in the game and what historical basis does the name 'Yvling' have? Do I simply suck at researching?
Another thing is that several Danish kings of the House Knytling, more specifically the ones who also ruled Norway, are shown as 'Kings of Norway' rather than 'of Denmark'. Is this simply a coincidence/mistake or due to a quirk within the engine?
I am very curious about these things, and any clarification would be appreciated
