Iceland - Signs of peace

Iceland had a few signs of involvement in peace. The earliest sign we were shown on our tour of the golden circle. Throstur Eysteinsson, our guide, showed us the location of the peace negotiations by the early settlers. He also pointed out the first location of the Icelandic Parliament. Iceland also showed interest in peace when it chose to become christian. Mr. Eysteinsson explained this when he told us about the meeting where their leader spent a few days in his tent with some women and came out with the decision to have Iceland not fight for it's right to be pagan, but submit to becoming Christians. - Patrick Austinson
