I am using the term "Norse" as to refer to all North Germanics(Danes, Faroes, Icelanders, Norwegians, Swedes). By "Antipodes" i am refering to Australia and New Zealand. Edit: one of these groups is considered Norse by itself. You don't need to have migrants from all these areas/groups. But you can.

Which Norse power is most likely to colonise the Antipodes? When would the colonisation likely begin?

How "Norse" would the demographics of the Antipodes in such a ATL be like? How large a percentage would be of Norse descent, indiginous descent or other descent?

What kind os societies would develop in the Norse Antipodes?

OTL there was a high emigration from Scandinavia(and especially Norway) to North America, where many settled in the mid-west(especially North Dakota and Minnesota). How would the Scandinavian emigration to USA be affected by this pod?
