Notes

#The exact dates or reign for Thor Haklang Kjotveson are uncertain though approximated to the 870s. We also know that Gudrod Kjøtve the Rich ruled until 872. [http://www.hostkingdom.net/scand.html]
#Northumbria, East Anglia and Mercia had ceased to be autonomous and independent kingdoms by this time.
#The date reigns of Sigurd Orm i Øje, as well as his actual existence, is controversial though East Anglian coins exist featuring him.
#Date of the end of Sancho I's reign is uncertain. Sancho II may have been monarch by 875.
