Orang Nordik
Orang Nordik (bahasa Inggris: Norsemen) adalah sebuah kelompok linguistik Jermanik Utara pada Abad Pertengahan Awal, pada masa yang mana mereka menuturkan bahasa Nordik Kuno.[1][2][3][4] Bahasa ini tergolong ke dalam cabang Jermanik Utara dari rumpun bahasa Indo-Eropa dan merupakan leluhur dari bahasa-bahasa Jermanik modern di Skandinavia.[4] Selama akhir abad kedelapan, orang Skandinavia memulai sebuah ekspansi berskala besar ke segala arah, menciptakan Zaman Viking. Dalam kesarjanaan berbahasa Inggris sejak abad ke-19, pedagang, pemukim dan prajurit Nordik yang melaut umumnya dirujuk sebagai Viking. Sejarawan di Inggris Anglo-Saksen membedakan antara Viking Nordik (Norsemen) dari Norwegia, yang terutama menginvasi dan menduduki pulau-pulau di sebelah utara dan barat laut Britania Raya, serta Irlandia dan Britania Raya barat, dengan Viking Denmark, yang terutama menginvasi dan menduduki Britania Raya timur.[a]
Keturunan modern dari orang Nordik antara lain[5] orang Denmark, orang Islandia,[b] orang Faroe,[b] orang Norwegia, dan orang Swedia,[6] yang kini umumnya dirujuk sebagai "orang Skandinavia" daripada orang Nordik.[7]

'Viking' is a term used to describe a certain class of marauding Scandinavian warrior from the 8th through the 11th century. However, when discussing the entire culture of the Northern Germanic peoples of the early Middle Ages, and especially in terms of the languages and literatures of these peoples, it would be more accurate to use the term 'Norse'. Therefore during the Middle Ages and beyond, it therefore might be useful to speak of 'German' peoples in middle Europe and of 'Norse' peoples in Scandinavia and the North Atlantic.

'Old Norse' defines the culture of Norway and Iceland during the Middle Ages. It is a somewhat illogical concept as it is largely synonymous with 'Norse' ... The term 'Norse' is often used as a translation of norroenn. As such it applies to all the Germanic peoples of Scandinavia and their colonies in the British Isles and the North Atlantic.

The term 'Norse' will be used as a catchall term for all North Germanic peoples in the sagas ...

Who were the Norse people? The term Norse is commonly applied to pre-Christian Northern Germanic peoples living in Scandinavia during the so-called Viking Age. Old Norse gradually developed into the North Germanic languages, including Icelandic, Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish.

The same can be said of Viking Age Scandinavians who did not have a common ethnonym but expressed their common identity through the geographical and linguistic terms ... There is absolutely no doubt about a common Northern identity during the Viking Age and afterwards ... it even survives today.

 . Dalam Lee, Donald Woodward. English Language Reader: Introductory Essays and Exercises. Dodd, Mead. [T]he pages of history have been filled with accounts of various Germanic peoples that made excursions in search of better homes; the Goths went into the Danube valley and thence into Italy and southern France; and thence into Italy and southern France; the Franks seized what was later called France; the Vandals went down into Spain, and via Africa they 'vandalized' Rome; the Angles, part of the Saxons, and the Jutes moved over into England; and the Burgundians and the Lombards worked south into France and Italy. Probably very early during these centuries of migration the three outstanding groups of the Germanic peoples—the North Germanic people of Scandinavia, the East Germanic branch, comprising the Goths chiefly, and the West Germanic group, comprising the remaining Germanic tribes—developed their notable group traits. Then, while the East Germanic tribes (that is, the Goths) passed gradually out of the pages of history and disappeared completely, the North Germanic, or Scandinavian, or Norse, peoples, as they are variously called, became a distinctive people, more and more unlike the West Germanic folk who inhabited Germany itself and, ultimately, Holland, and Belgium and England. While that great migration of nations which the Germans have named the Volkerwanderung was going on, the Scandinavian division of the Germanic peoples had kept their habitation well to the north of the others and had been splitting up into the four subdivisions now known as the Swedes, Norwegians, Danes, and Icelanders. Long after the West Germanic and East Germanic peoples had made history farther south in Europe, the North Germanic tribes of Scandinavia began a series of expeditions which, during the eighth and ninth centuries, in the so-called Viking Age especially, led them to settle Iceland, to overrun England and even annex it to Denmark temporarily, and, most important of all, to settle in northern France and merge with the French to such an extent that Northmen became Normans, and later these Normans became the conquerors of England.

Ottar belonged to a group of peoples who were beginning to have a huge impact on European history. They are now called 'Scandinavians', though historically they were called 'Northmen'.
