Earl of Orkney, historically Jarl of Orkney, is a title of nobility encompassing the archipelagoes of Orkney and Shetland, which comprise the Northern Isles of Scotland. Originally founded by Norse invaders, the status of the rulers of the Northern Isles as Norwegian vassals was formalised in 1195. Although the Old Norse term jarl is etymologically related to "earl", and the jarls were succeeded by earls in the late 15th century, a Norwegian jarl is not the same thing. In the Norse context the distinction between jarls and kings did not become significant until the late 11th century and the early jarls would therefore have had considerable independence of action until that time. The position of Jarl of Orkney was eventually the most senior rank in medieval Norway except for the king himsel

  • Граф Оркни — старинный шотландский аристократический титул в пэрстве Шотландии. Графство Оркни было образовано норвежскими завоевателями и на начальном этапе включало в себя Оркнейские и Шетландские острова, а также, временами, Кейтнесс и Сатерленд. Графы периодически давали присягу королям Норвегии, а позже также и королям Шотландии, как правители части Северной Шотландии (Кейтнесс и Сатерленд). Статус графа Оркни как вассала норвежского короля был официально подтверждён в 1195 году. После перехода островов под власть Шотландии в 1471 году графство несколько раз восстанавливалось и упразднялось. (ru)

  • Liste des jarls et comtes des Orcades (anglais Earl of Orkney) depuis l'origine jusqu'à l'annexion par le royaume d'Écosse et l'intégration dans la pairie d'Écosse au XIIIe siècle. Le comte des Orcades était à l’origine un jarl nordique régnant sur les archipels des Orcades et des Shetland (Northern Isles). Fondés à l’origine par des envahisseurs nordiques, les premiers jarls auraient eu une indépendance d’action considérable jusqu’au XIe siècle. La position de Jarl des Orcades a finalement été le rang le plus élevé de la Norvège médiévale, à l’exception du roi lui-même. (fr)
