The name Agder was not used after 1662, when the area was split into smaller governmental units called Nedenæs, Råbyggelaget, Lister, and Mandal.

kingdoms ruled by chiefs who contended for land, maritime supremacy, or political ascendance and sought alliances or control through marriage with other royal families, either voluntary or forced. These circumstances produced the generally turbulent and heroic lives recorded in the <i><a href="/wiki/Heimskringla" title="Heimskringla">Heimskringla</a></i>. </p><p>For example, the <a href="/wiki/Ynglinga_saga" title="Ynglinga saga">Ynglinga saga</a> tells us that Harald Redbeard, chief of Agðir, refused his daughter <a href="/wiki/%C3%85sa_Haraldsdottir_of_Agder" title="Åsa Haraldsdottir of Agder">Åsa</a> to Gudröd Halvdanson, on which event Gudröd invaded Agðir, killed Harald and his son Gyrd, and took Åsa whether she would or no. She bore a son, Halvdan (the Black), and later arranged to have Gudröd assassinated. Among the royal families, these events seem to have been rather ordinary. Her word was the last in the argument, as her grandson, Harald Fairhair, unified Norway. </p> <dl><dt>Kings of Agder</dt></dl> <dl><dt><dl><dt>Legendary Kings</dt></dl></dt></dl> <ul><li><a href="/w/index.php?title=Harald_Agderking&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Harald Agderking (page does not exist)">Harald Agderking</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/V%C3%ADkar" title="Víkar">Víkar</a></li> <li>Kissa</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Bj%C3%A6ring" title="Bjæring">King Bjæring</a></li></ul> <dl><dt><dl><dt>Monarchs of Agder (790–987)</dt></dl></dt></dl> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Harald_Granraude" title="Harald Granraude">Harald Granraude</a>, 7??–815, father of Åsa</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Queen_%C3%85sa" class="mw-redirect" title="Queen Åsa">Åsa</a>, between 815 and 834–838, mother of Halfdan the Black</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Halfdan_the_Black" title="Halfdan the Black">Halfdan the Black</a>, father of <a href="/wiki/Harald_I_of_Norway" class="mw-redirect" title="Harald I of Norway">Harald Fairhair</a>, from 838</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Kjotve_the_Rich" title="Kjotve the Rich">Kjotve the Rich</a>, late 9th century</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Harald_Grenske" title="Harald Grenske">Harald Gudrødsson Grenske</a>, 976–987</li></ul> <p>Prior to the Viking Age is a gap in the region's history for a few hundred years, but in <a href="/wiki/Jordanes" title="Jordanes">Jordanes</a> we also find regions of the same but earlier forms of names, presumably also petty kingdoms under now unknown chiefs. The previous most credible source, <a href="/wiki/Ptolemy" title="Ptolemy">Ptolemy</a>, gives the briefest of sketches, only citing all of Norway as the <a href="/wiki/Chaedini" title="Chaedini">Chaedini</a> ("country people"). Perhaps the difference between kingdoms was not sufficiently important to cite them individually. </p><p>Prior to then the most credible and respected source, <a href="/wiki/Tacitus" title="Tacitus">Tacitus</a> in <i><a href="/wiki/Germania_(book)" title="Germania (book)">Germania</a></i> Chapter 44 described the <a href="/wiki/Swedes_(Germanic_tribe)" class="mw-redirect" title="Swedes (Germanic tribe)">Suiones</a>, who were divided into civitates (kingdoms?) along the coast of Scandinavia and were unusual in owning fleets of a special type of ship. These were pointed on both ends and were driven by banks of oars that could be rearranged or shipped for river passage. They did not depend on sail (so Tacitus says) but other than that they do not differ from Viking ships. These civitates went all the way around Scandinavia to the Arctic, or at least to regions of very long days, where they stopped. </p><p>It seems clear that in the <a href="/wiki/Roman_Iron_Age" class="mw-redirect" title="Roman Iron Age">Roman Iron Age</a> Norway was populated by people of the same identity as Sweden, who were called the Suiones by Latin sources. In settling the coast at some point in prehistory they had been divided into civitates by the terrain. These states took on mainly geographical names or names of individuals or mythological characters. Agder was one of them. </p><p>After the unification of Norway by Harold Fairhair and army and allies in the 10th century, all the civitates became provinces (<span title="Bokmål-language text"><i lang="nb">fylker</i></span>) and after their conversion to Christianity, they became dioceses or parishes. The development of <a href="/wiki/Old_Norse" title="Old Norse">Old Norse</a> into local dialects and the dissimilation of customs due to isolation added an ethnic flavor to the area, which is cherished today. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="References">References</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Agder&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: References"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1239543626">.mw-parser-output .reflist{margin-bottom:0.5em;list-style-type:decimal}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .reflist{font-size:90%}}.mw-parser-output .reflist .references{font-size:100%;margin-bottom:0;list-style-type:inherit}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-2{column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-3{column-width:25em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns{margin-top:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns ol{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns li{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-alpha{list-style-type:upper-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-roman{list-style-type:upper-roman}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-alpha{list-style-type:lower-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-greek{list-style-type:lower-greek}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-roman{list-style-type:lower-roman}</style><div class="reflist"> <div class="mw-references-wrap"><ol class="references"> <li id="cite_note-1"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-1">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1238218222">.mw-parser-output cite.citation{font-style:inherit;word-wrap:break-word}.mw-parser-output .citation q{quotes:"\"""\"""'""'"}.mw-parser-output .citation:target{background-color:rgba(0,127,255,0.133)}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-free.id-lock-free a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/65/Lock-green.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited.id-lock-limited a,.mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration.id-lock-registration a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d6/Lock-gray-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription.id-lock-subscription a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/aa/Lock-red-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4c/Wikisource-logo.svg")right 0.1em center/12px no-repeat}body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-free a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background-size:contain;padding:0 1em 0 0}.mw-parser-output .cs1-code{color:inherit;background:inherit;border:none;padding:inherit}.mw-parser-output .cs1-hidden-error{display:none;color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-visible-error{color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{display:none;color:#085;margin-left:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-left{padding-left:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-right{padding-right:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .citation .mw-selflink{font-weight:inherit}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .cs1-format{font-size:95%}html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}</style><cite class="citation web cs1 cs1-prop-foreign-lang-source"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.sprakradet.no/sprakhjelp/Skriverad/navn-pa-steder-og-personer/Innbyggjarnamn/">"Navn på steder og personer: Innbyggjarnamn"</a> (in Norwegian).
