Anthem
Am sei tippe eff sei Fiårriana maunssei,

Lætt åur herttar ånde åur seillar.

Vai nåblivir imm åur herttar,

Sei ånnar kutt mårttur am kutt kåltt nåktt,

Pållhann förr åur nåssen.

Fjallar Næss blitt vai,

Hö hålle liffer am issitt vai,

Att sei lafftel eff åur herttar.

Note: "The Fyorrian Mountain" refers to Kebnekaise, in which the Battle of Kebnekaise was fought against the Swedes where Fyorrian independence was secured.

Celtic Times
The history of Fyorr started in the 2nd century BC when the Celts discovered Scandinavia and colonized it. They named this colony "ᚃᚔᚓᚏᚏᚔᚌᚓᚅᚐ "(Fierrigena) and expanded south, later to discover the Norse.

Norse Times
The relations between the Celtic colony and Norse grew and eventually Fierrigena grew close to the Norse. Later on, the people of Fierrigena rebelled against the Celts and mixed in with the Norse tribes. The Fyorrians weren't heard of for awhile after that event.

Skandi Independence War
In 1319 Swedish Empire took over Norway. A Norwegian group called the “Skandis” started a rebellion, hoping to reform Norway. The North Swedes (Fyorrians) supplied them with weaponry and food during the war. The Swedes were victorious, and in the Treaty of Stockholm, the Skandis would not gain independence.

The First Fyorrian Uprising
In 1397, during the formation of the Kalmar Union, the Fyorrian people declared war under the name “Novaskandi”. They lost the war.

Fast forward to 1899, the Swedish Empire still exists. Fjallar Næss, a descendant of a Novaskandi general gathered all Novaskandi descendants. He let them know about his plan to win the war and form the Novaskandi kingdom. The plan worked, and they defeated the Swedish Empire. In the treaty of Trondheim in 1904, the Novaskandis were given their own nation. The people decided to name the kingdom after the old Celtic colony that was there.

Expansion Period
This period was from 1912-1920 when the Fyorrians expanded.

Purchase of Nord and Sør Trøndelag
To maintain a good relationship, on January 10th, 1912, the Norwegian regions of Nord and Sør Trøndelag were purchased and renamed to Nårtt and Sutt Trånttelag.

Finnish-Swedish Collapse
After Fyorr and Norway seceded from Sweden, Sweden requested a unification with Finland. Finland accepted this unification. However, the Finns started revolting during WW1. Once the war ended, The unified Finnosweden collapsed. The Fyorrian government was able to take the territory, however, the knew that the Russians were eyeing the territory and might attack in the future.

World War I & World War II
The nation managed to stay neutral during WW1, trying to stabilize.

The kingdom joined the Allies in WW2. They won, and Fyorr gained a northern German island for 50 years. The island was ceded back to Germany in 1995.

However, this win came with a price.

The dreaded Russian attack finally came around on the 26th of November, 1939. In this alternate version of the Winter War, the Fyorrians weren't as lucky as the Finnish. This resulted in all of Finland, plus parts of Sweden and Finnmark being taken, threatening Tråmså. However, allied support came just in time, and they were able to keep the border stable until the Germans attacked. In this attack, they were able to take back Sweden the Finnish coastline. Russia quickly signed a peace treaty with the Fyorrians, so that they could focus on the German attacks. This is how the modern Fyorrian borders were formed.
