Norsmandy, also called the Isles of Norsmandy, is a canton of the Grand Duchy of Lac Glacei. It is the only completely-maritime canton within the Grand Duchy and also one of the smallest. The islands, consisting of (clockwise, from west to east) Bajoccas, Jarnia and Magus, are sparsely populated and lie along the Strait of Pearls.
History
Originally a province of Arminy, Norsmandy was originally settled by Crandish migrants moving eastward from the heartland of Anglien. The moniker of Norsman is attributed to Storish settlers in the area referring to the new arrivals, who hailed from further north than Stormark's homeland in Lyrica.
