    - You could join Japan’s faction and take parts of China (or puppet communist China for manpower)
    - Or I guess you could invade the Netherlands through Germany (with paratroopers on the victory points) for some waffles and sweet Indonesian manpower
    - Or you could just bring back the rat…

      He was descended from Vikings and the Duchy of Normandy was founded by Rollo the Viking but William wouldn't have considered himself a Viking. He would have likely considered himself Norman and later English. The former of which was a mixture of Frankish and Scandinavian cultures, but was a settled Christian state that had no formal ties to Vikings or Scandinavian kingdoms
