Vikings settled in Iceland around the late 9th century primarily due to its uninhabited land, which offered opportunities for farming and grazing. The island's isolation provided a fresh start for those seeking to escape political turmoil and conflicts in Scandinavia. Additionally, Iceland's abundant Natural Resources, such as fish and geothermal energy, made it an attractive location for settlement and sustainable living.
