The Norse expansion into the North Atlantic occurred between 800 and 1000 CE, and may have been caused by a combination of population pressures and political unrest in the Norse homeland.

Iceland, discovered by the Norse in 860, appears to have been settled by ca. 874 and was fully occupied by 930.
