The leader of the Norsemen was known as a chieftain or jarl. The jarl was the leader of a clan, family, or village, and was responsible for leading and protecting the people in their jurisdiction. In addition to being the leader, they were also responsible for maintaining Law and Order, settling disputes, and providing military support to their people. They were also in charge of overseeing their peoples religious beliefs and ceremonies.
The jarl was usually a wealthy and powerful individual, usually with a noble background. They were usually elected by the people of their jurisdiction, but in some cases could be inherited through the family line. Over the centuries, some jarls amassed enough power to become kings, such as Erik the Red, who became king of the Norsemen in Greenland.
In addition to the jarls, there were also important officials in the Norseman society. These included the lawman, or goi, who was responsible for adjudicating disputes and maintaining law and order. They were also responsible for maintaining a local shrine and presiding over religious ceremonies. There were also the skalds, or poets, who composed and recited poetry in the courts of the jarls.
The Norseman also had a strong military, with warriors known as berserkers. The berserkers were fierce and courageous warriors who fought with great strength and ferocity. They were known to fight without armor and to go into a trance-like state, known as berserkergang, before battle. They were a formidable force, and played an important role in the jarls' military campaigns.
