1. Unlike everybody else, they actually have a plan in place to feed the world in case of famine.

2. Their next king will be named Haakon.

tree bark processed into flour with mutant bacteria.

If people are starving, they aren't going to have enough meat on them to get a decent amount of protein.

Thats true a guy wrote a book about when people turn to cannibalism in
starvation it is usually too late. One most the fat is gone. The body in starvation
looses the ability to digest lean protein (fats and carbohydrates are much easier to
digest).

Though the part about making food from biomass is true. You could convert biomass
into sugars then use microorganism to make better human food.

Yeah you treat biomass (mostly cellulose) with either acids (sulfric) or enzymes
(cellulase) you get a mix of 6 carbon sugars (glucose) and 5 carbon sugars(xylose
,etc). These sugars can then be fermented to eatible fungi. Its proven technology
its just expensive. Food tends to cost(retail) alot more than say oil(you can grow micro-
organism with oil too!).

Norwegian Goths. The look works for them so much, because most of them have pale skin.

Immortal and Carpathian forest!
