These old Viking laws are still FUNDAMENTAL to the Norwegian way of life, and no EU law should be allowed to 'dilute' them, IMO.
It may be a better EU if they adopted them...;-)
And by the way, they also apply in Orkney and Shetland as Udal title...
I would suggest that a better understanding of how societies have developed in the Nordic countries may give food for thought to the (still, IMO) Empire building attitudes of the larger EU countries.
Maybe I should sit down one day...
