What was the name of Gudrød Bjørnsson's grandfather, who is also known as the first King of Norway?
Harald Fairhair
Harald Fairhair
Harald Fairhair (Old Norse: "Haraldr Hárfagri", Norwegian: "Harald Hårfagre", (literally "Harald Fair-hair") ;  850 –  932) is remembered by medieval historians as the first King of Norway.
 According to traditions current in Norway and Iceland in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, he reigned from  872 to 930.
 Most of his life remains uncertain, since the extant accounts of his life in the sagas were set down in writing around three centuries after his lifetime.
 A few remnants of skaldic praise poems attributed to contemporary court poets exist which seem to refer to Harald's victories against opponents in Norway.
 The information supplied in these poems is inconsistent with the tales in the sagas in which they are transmitted, and the sagas themselves often disagree on the details of his background and biography.
 Two of his sons, Eric Bloodaxe and Haakon the Good, succeeded Harald to become kings after his death.
Gudrød Bjørnsson
Gudrød Bjørnsson was the son of Bjørn Farmann, the king of Vestfold, and a grandson of Harald Fairhair.
 Gudrød was the father of Harald Grenske, and the paternal grandfather of Saint Olaf.
House of Theemuge
Theemuge Dharikolhu (Dhivehi: ތީމުގޭ ދަރިކޮޅު) or Homa Dharikolhu (Dhivehi: ހޯމަ ދަރިކޮޅު) was one of the early dynasties of the Maldives that reigned from c.1117 (or earlier) until c.1388.
 According to the record in the Isdhoo Loamaafaanu (copper plates), which was written in 1194, the first king of the Theemuge Dynasty extended his rule to cover the entire Maldives.
 The writing suggests that the king united the entire country under his rule, bringing to an end a number of fiefdoms throughout the country.
 The first king of the Theemuge Dynasty is known as Siri Mahabarana and he is believed to be Koimala Kalo.
 Sri Mahabarana was proclaimed king in the year 1117 or 1118.
 Other sources suggest that the Theemuge Dharikolhu was the new name of the Soma Vansa Lunar Dynastry after the conversion to Islam of King Dhovemi which lasted from c.1153 to c.1388.
 In this case King Dhovemi, the fifth king of the Lunar Dynastry became the first King of the Theemuge Dynastry. Eric of Pomerania

 This branch was descended from Eochu, the brother of Ailill Molt (died 484).

 According to the sagas, he was the father of Halfdan the Black, and thus the grandfather of Harald Fairhair, the first king of unified Norway.
 He is considered by modern historians to be of a more mythical nature than other ancestors of Harald and Halfdan, and he can not be identified historically.
