These are the eighteen provinces/municipals of Arendelle. I found a hint on reddit and copied all coat of arms together out of the screencaps of Frozen and OFA.

Sorry for the bad quality but unfortunately it did not get better. Now we only need to know what the names of these provinces/municipals are and where in Arendelle they are. Any ideas? EDIT: I figured it out on my own. Arendelle is the capital (own province) and the other provinces are corresponding to Norway’s 18 Fylker (= province) which are: Akershus, Aust-Agder, Buskerud, Finnmark, Hedmark, Hordaland, Møre og Romsdal, Nord-Trøndelag, Nordland, Oppland, Rogaland, Sogn og Fjordane, Sør-Trøndelag, Telemark, Troms, Vest-Agder, Vestfold, Østfold. I’ve also checked the original coat of arms in comparison to these in Frozen. They are different - of course - but there are some similarities in colour and shape.

The makers of Frozen have obviously thought of everything. But that also clarifies another question, how big the kingdom of Arendelle actually is. Now we know. Arendelle covers the whole area of Norway and the castle in the film with the place around it corresponds to the capital and represents its own province.

I have to reblog myself now because there is more to tell about this topic and of course I wanted to let you know.

I did further research on Wikipedia and found out the following, which has many parallels to the film.

It should be known that the castle Arendelle or the name is based on the real place “Arendal”.

It is located in Norway in the province Aust-Agder (translated East-Agder) and belongs to the district Sørlandet. Norway is also known as the “Land of the trolls and the snow”. Arendal is the largest of 15 municipalities and each has its own coat of arms. It has its own lighthouse, which can only be reached by boat (the one from “Love is an Open Door”). It has a twin city in Denmark (the “southern islands”) and Iceland…the town of Selfoss there is not far from Reynisfjara Beach, and we already know it from the Frozen II trailer with the black pebbles on the beach.

This province Aust-Agder was once called only “Agder” and was in the Viking Age a small kingdom called Agðir. Do you notice any similarities here? The king in Frozen became known as Agnarr, or as many of you call him Agdar.

A historical king in this ancient province was coincidentally called “Harald Agderking”. Well? Agder = King = Agdar in Frozen.

There is certainly more to discover, but it will take a lot of time. Maybe you will notice something somewhere.
