The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- With the probable exception of hermitic Irish monks known as Papar, Iceland was an uninhabited island until around 874.
- The Icelandic Commonwealth had a unique political system whereby chieftains established a common legal code and settled judicial disputes at the Althing, a national assembly.
- However, there was no executive body in Iceland that enforced the legal code.

Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Icelandic Commonwealth article was read about 70,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 70 and blocks with 63: each hit it takes is cut by 25 %.
