Picture of the temple.
Videos a bit awkward but I think it’s better than the other videos I’ve made. Also sometimes the quality cuts out so sorry about that.
The Community Center was used by the founder of the North Polean religion Erik Aflison to preach his religion so it has religious importance and Erik was very fond of the community center. Erik never made it clear if he liked that or another temple nicknamed "Sedna-Odinland Castle" more, as he died in 1423 well before it's construction. It is debated which site has more importance in the North Polean religion and some say they have equal importance. The Sedna-Odinland Community Center is said to be better designed than the Sedna-Odinland/Siedainua-Odailaida Castle and has more detail in it. The Sedna-Odinland Community Center also started the tradition of Community Centers and other buildings being made of gray and white. The building holds about 1,500 people which is less than the Nuuk Community Center but unlike the Nuuk Community Center it gets more visitors per day at around 40,000. The Sedna-Odinland Community Center is a UNESCO world heritage site.
Fort Akeson was a fort built in 1417, the year the founder of the NIU (Norse Inuit Union), Rune Akeson, died in Nanortalik. The fort was completed in 1418. The fort is close to the grave of Akeson and serves multiple purposes. It serves as a religious center, social gathering center, a port for weapons and food, and a place for defense. The defense part was to protect Rune Akesons grave and the supplies at the fort. The picture of the fort I am about to show you is from 1442.
During this time some members of a terrorist group known as Fenrir's Fangs would raid the fort for supplies and target those using it so it was extra well guarded.
The picture of the fort had been modified since the original video seen below. The modifications I made was the Renaissance North Polean house (hagrid's hut), making the land look less square, and giving them gloves.
Video with me explaining it.
Video of updated fort (turn volume down). If you heard a weird grumbling sound at one point that was my stomach growling lol.
Explanation 1: Also the reason the guards/soldiers are wearing more grey helmets than their armor is they purposefully painted it more grey as that was Rune Akeson's favorite color, so they did that to honor him as his grave is nearby the fort.
Explanation 2: The soldiers clothing was warm enough for the weather.
Explanation 3.1: Although the Norse religious service and Inuit Shaman are very close to each other, the Inuit Shaman were about to leave and the Norse religious service just started. They start their worship at different times from each other.
Explanation 3.2: Relating to the Norse religious service a the people decided to put their hoods down for the start of it out of respect, including the Norse not participating in it. They knew the religious was going on as the preacher had a horn he blew to show that it was happening.
Explanation 4: The water wasn't frozen due to the salt levels.
Explanation 5: The other area has no snow as that area has been cleaned. The snowy area is the natural land, the other area that has no snow is a part of the Fortress.
Explanation 6: As to why they are wearing Lamellar and plate armor see my military factbook where it is explained in the "Military from 1300-1502" section under the "Lamellar" and "Plate" armor part.
Explanation 7: The Norse crabbing boat also serves as looking out for possible attackers hence why most of them are armored.
Explanation 8: The reason the guards are inside the fort instead of guarding the shore is to protect civilians using the fort incase it is attacked. The look out boat will alert them if there an attack by outside forces.

Flag of the Cult, they use to have a black sun on their flag but took it off in 1985 due to it being associated as a Nazi symbol.
The Polean Sun Cult or what they like to be called, The Sons of Sól, are an extreme branch of Norse Paganism that broke off from them in 1545. One of the most important beliefs of this cult is that they believe that the personification of the sun, Sól, doomed the NIU by making it cold because they didn’t believe in the right version of Norse Paganism, and they believe they are the chosen ones. They also believe that Baphomet and Lucifer are beings that will punish those that don’t believe in their version of Norse Paganism and that they will reward those that do. In 1546 they left the NIU and moved to Churchill, Manitoba which is in Canada and they built a Heaven Hof there called the Sun Hof. There are still members of this cult that live in Churchill and Southern Nunavut/Inuktitut. They are at an estimated 550 members today in both Canada and the NIU and the Sun Hof is still in use.
