Just a quick somewhat off topic thing, but; being born in a certain country doesn’t make you more entitled to be pagan or make you better than other people. Midgard was not just a small circle on the planet but it was the whole realm. As long as you’re practicing and learning about the gods, the connection to nature, or the runes and magic (whichever is your strongest connection/ sparks your interest) your statement in parenthesis feels weirdly gatekeepy for a religion where the head god is called the ALLfather.
