What would be the most logical or fitting empire to explore Hyperborea, assuming it is in the antarctic and ruined after the biblical flood? This is for a game setting.

Obvious answer would be the Russians or British in 1820. But i want to hear from you guys.

>empire
no it's gonna be some fuckass norwegian named named roald or halfdan or some other fake made-up name

You sound like a faggot anon.

>"hyperboria"

Some ragtag bunch of Germans, Russians, and Finns who each have their own preconceptions of what Hyperborea would be. Maybe thrown in a Greek or two.

>Hyperborea
>Antarctica
Hypernotia

And the answer is the Ross Expedition of 1839-43.

The original Greek myth stated the land was to the far north, not south. Boreas was the god of the North wind.

I sometimes get Hyperborea and Hyborea mixed up.

Can you at least bother to look up what you're shitposting about before you make threads like these, fag? These are quite literally opposite regions.

My bad, lol. I thought Antarctica was at the north before looking at a map. I’ll make the city Agartha or make up my own lost civilization.

Who was Norton II? I know of Norton I, Emperor of the United States and Protector of Mexico, but I've never heard of Norton II.

THE BRITISH OR RUSSIANS WILL NOT COME TO HYPERBOREA

HYPERBOREA WILL COME TO THEM

Thanks! So be it!

Wasn´t it literally scandinavia or one of the islands of the white sea coast?

It's debatable as to where it might have been. Several ancient authors placed the mountains the Hyperboreans lived north of all over ancient Eurasia.
