Genealogy and History.

Since historical times has genealogy be ordered a big role in the life and performance of men and nations.

By demonstrating powerful people gained greater respect for their fellow citizens and a higher power. It explains, for example, should the main protagonists and runs 12 races to Abraham and Isaac, and even today trace their ancestry back to Israel to confirm their right to live in Palestine, the Arabs actually do it too because they trace their ancestry back to his brother Esau and Jacob, Jews to Judah son of Jacob and there from is the name of their tribe, Jews or Judah.

In Iceland the settlers moved over the Norwegians who were in opposition to Harald lúfa into Iceland and took land. Harold had shown these tribes, originally from Asia Minor and probably from Adserbajan or Ásabæ extensive violence and had taken their land and power for himself. His right he built including the tracing his ancestry to Odin and all the way to Adam and was able to demonstrate their power.

The settlers acquired land should whole sections and later parenting land even bigger and even more power. Authorities also followed the separate to support omega people and the public had to prove their right of living with race.

It has not always been possible to ascertain the Father but by understanding reasons is hardly sounded doubt the mother race. To correct this was begun the way that is still practiced in the motherfamily they saw the child with various symptoms alleged father.

Genealogy is relatively simpler in our country because of how few people live here. The fear of little ice age from the end of 13th century and the beginning of the 20th cut a large gap in the population that either moved out of the land or fell off the jam and sludge. Probably the volcano has been the starting point cooling climate in our country, however, loses the independence of 1262, when the Þórður kakali would become a royal servant.

Navigation of admissions because there was no longer material for shipbuilding, and there were virtually no sailing from Iceland to Norway, sailing to Greenland and Wineland were completely down and forgotten the way for centuries.

The country almost completely isolated in a hundred years and was hardly broken until Einar Herjólfsson came with the Black Death in the country in the early 15th century. So named, “The Pest” killed half the people and places were deserted, the whole countryside, and then people tried to claim the inheritance. More plagues came upon the land, including “móðuharðindin” following the Laki eruption where the climate for a decade changed and people went to the navigation on the farms were damaged and cattle fall. To stem the crawl and poverty inside were armed men placed custody with all county borders  which was easy in the South due to large rivers there, but more difficult elsewhere as example the east where Vopnfirðingar drove the starving people in the mountains and let it die rule their the place which today is called Valley of the grave. The last plague was the little ice age jailbreak

Icelanders and in particular Skagafjord and Fljótsdalshérað went to North America.

Population had fallen by 40,000 from 11th century.

Genealogy today is almost exclusively practiced today out of curiosity but not in the interests of association. The century power people mark themselves by tribal names, after the manner middle European nations and entered into efficiency bands, as had happened in Early century and history repeated itself, except now the poorness placed on the shoulders of local and state which has adopted feeding, people no longer brought to the hills, but encouraged to seek out an opportunity elsewhere and under different conditions, but still it was used to. 1 dead, one fewer mouth to feed.
