The Nords are a race of tall and fair-haired humans from Skyrim. They are strong, stubborn and exceptional warriors, being skilled in many weapons and armor styles. They are also highly resistant to frost, and are very enthusiastic for war and brutality. Furthermore, Nords are good sailors, with well established trade links along all the rivers and coasts of Tamriel.
Nords are probably based on ancient Scandinavians and their culture, as most of their styles, equipment, society and skills fit with ancient norse traditions. Furthermore, the book Sovngarde, a Reexamination show that the Nords have religious views very similar to that of norse mythology.
