Iceland was settled in the late 9th and early 10th centuries, principally by people of Norwegian and other Scandinavia n origin. In 930 , the ruling chiefs established a republican Constitution and an assembly called the Althing - the oldest parliament in the world. Iceland remained independent until 1262 , when it entered into a treaty which established a union with the Norwegian monarchy. It passed to Denmark in the late 14th century when Norway and Denmark were united under the Danish crown. RULERS
