Old Norwegian Localization

Sets Old Icelandic place names in Norway to their Old Norwegian equivalents. No more pesky Mæri or Trændalög, hello sexy Mœri and Trœndelog!

An almost total overhaul of names within the kingdom of Norway, as well as a few adjustments in Sápmi for counties owned by characters of Norse or Norwegian culture.

ǿ becomes œ as seen in most medieval manuscripts.

ö has been completely replaced by normal o, as seen in most medieval manuscripts.

Many baronies and counties have been completely renamed to be more historically relevant places and/or to give a more accurate representation of medieval Norway.
