* Zig-zagged in ''VideoGame/CrusaderKingsII''. Sweden, Norway, Denmark, the Faroe Islands and Iceland all have the norse culture in the early start dates but split up into Swedish, Norwegian and danish in their corresponding de jure kingdoms from 950 onward, subverting this trope. However, if you happen to unite all these kingdoms in a united Scandinavian empire, they will stay Norse forever, thus playing this trope straight.
