A Viking nation formed from all the tribes of the Barbaric Archipelago under the leadership of High King Hiccup Haddock III. They are currently at war with the Northern Alliance.
----

[[folder: In General]]

* TheAlliance: Consists of Viking tribes (such as the Hairy Hooligans, Outcasts, Beserkers, and Bog Burglars) joining together to defeat the Northern Alliance.
* BadassArmy: It consists of all the Viking tribe from the Barbaric Archipelago [[spoiler: and later Mathantir]]. They also possess a dragon army and frequently deal [[CurbStompBattle curb-stomp battles]] to anyone that fights them.
* ChildSoldiers: They recruit teens and young dragons into their ranks. Hiccup justifies it by pointing out that he was only fifteen when he defended Berk against the Outcasts and Beserkers. Valka is still disturbed by this.
* CultureClash: Given that they were living in isolation for centuries, this is inevitable.
** They are confused by Europa's StayInTheKitchen attitude towards women.
* DragonRider: Has become an integral part of their army.
* ElectiveMonarchy: Hiccup was voted High King during a meeting between the chieftains.
* EliteMooks: The Sky Terrors are a troop of dragon riders that act as shock troopers who utilize hit-and-run tactics against the enemy before a battle takes place.
* EnemyMine: They were all united by their mutual hatred of the Northern Alliance.
* GenderIsNoObject: They more or less treat women as equals to men.
* GoodVsGood: [[spoiler: They indirectly declared war on Arendelle when they invaded Uttland in Chapter 4.]]
* HornyVikings: They are a kingdom of Vikings, so this is a given.
* OccupiersOutOfOurCountry: The entire reason that the tribes united in the first place was to drive the Northern Alliance out of their waters.
* OutsideContextProblem: To anyone outside the Northern Alliance. Even without [[DragonRider dragon riders]], no one's seen the Vikings for centuries and Arendelle is taken completely off-guard by their return.
* ProudWarriorRace: A major part of their culture.
* RapePillageAndBurn: [[spoiler: During the invasion of Radvo, Snotlout has his army loot and burn down various homes in the city as retribution for the Northern Alliance's war crimes.]]

* BadassCape: He wears a black cloak made from the fur of a wolf he shot.
* BrokenAce: He is the king of the Vikings, has a dragon army, is completely beloved by his people, and is currently on the winning side of a war.

* FounderOfTheKingdom: He's the first ruler of the United Norse Kingdom and was the one who united all the Viking tribes.
* GadgeteerGenius: He hasn't lost his knack for inventing. By the time of ''Of State'', he's designed what are basically ''missiles'' and '''sonic cannons'''. AccordingToTheManual, he's also designed the fountain pen and French toast.
