King Haakon the Good is remembered by history as the first Christian monarch of Norway. Though the land was still wholly pagan when he ascended the throne, his reign left an enduring legacy of justice, compassion, and wisdom. So cherished was he by his people that he earned the lasting title "the Good."

As the youngest son of Harald Fairhair Haakon was never destined to rule. Yet fate chose him, and through his fairness, compassion, and wise laws, he won the hearts of the Norwegians. At his death, it was said that Norway would never see his like again. This is his story.
