Another libtard is once again hopelessly confused about something. This one thinks the parliamentary system in Iceland was called the "Thing". The Althing (Icelandic: Alþingi) is the national parliament of Iceland. It is the oldest legislature in the world that still exists. It was founded in 930 at Thingvellir (the "assembly fields"), which is almost 45 kilometres (28 mi) east of Iceland's capital, Reykjavík. Well you are very wrong here. Iceland and Norway gave rights to women in a court proceeding they called the Thing. Not sure exactly when they first started this but maybe around 1000. You could get educated about it online I'm sure. They had no schools of course back then. Maybe he is getting it mixed up with the movie.
