One of the theories to the populace of its present territory asserts that the first people of the island arrived in the 8th century and that they were members of a mission known as a papar, which came from Ireland or Scotland, even though there are no archeological discoveries that support these hypotheses.

It is thought that the monks have left the island when the Scandinavians arrived, who settled between 870 and 930 years old.

The first permanent North American settler was Inglfur Arnarson, who built his farm in the area of the present 874th year.

Ingalfur was followed by many other colonists and their Irish slaves.

In 930, the highest portion of the agricultural land was occupied and the Althing was founded, a legislative and judicial parliament was founded as a political center of the Icelandic Confederation.

Christianity was adopted in the year 1000.

The confederation lasted until 1262 when the political system for the original colonists was incapacitated with the power of the Icelandic.
