What if Norway had won the 11th century conquest of England?

Would we be speaking Norwegian right now? Or would it be more likely that Europeans would be speaking Mohawk? Because obviously the vikings would have continued raping and pillaging their way to Paris and eventually go full circle through the Holy Roman Empire. When the Iroquois discovered Europe, they found only meaderies staffed by drunk fatherless bastards.

Small country of pissed off alcoholists wtfpwned almost half of europe, found Iceland and visited America before Columbus...Norwegians are nothing to F with. Only thing keeping us safe anymore is the fact Norwegians have so much oil they dont need to rape and pillage anymore.
