I have the vague memory of some Pekka saying that the Varangians were actually Finnic. Frankly, I don't understand this pointless bickering.
Whether from Sweden, mostly Sweden, or Denmark, the unification of Russia is an effect of the Viking Age. Same goes for England, although in a different way. Baltniggers, steppe niggers and even Arabs on the other hand just got absolutely demolished by them. Sweden didn't even exist for centuries, so they have a claim to absolutely nothing.
