	Ranrike - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ranrike (Old Norse Ránríki) was the old name for a part of Viken, corresponding to the northern half of the traditional Swedish province of Bohuslän (roughly the physical Álfheim of Scandinavian mythology).
		It is sometimes said to have derived its name from the goddess of the sea, Rán.
		In any case, the position of Ragnaricii next to Raumaricii (Romerike) indicates that it is probably the same as Ranrike, believed to be named after the goddess of the sea, Rán (Ran-riki, "kingdom of ran").
