Play with this idea. A geographical difference. Place an island well to the south of Iceland on the mid-Atlantic ridge. Basically a temperate Iceland with trees you can build ships out of and capable of supporting large populations closer to those of Ireland rather than Iceland's fairly small numbers.

The Vikings would have settled this island too. They'd have stayed independent longer than Iceland was able too, and they'd have explored for a longer time. Upshot? Knights and Indians!

Can't you just see the jousts in your mind's eye?
