A Varyag is an alternate name for the Varangians, Scandinavian Vikings who migrated to Rus' (modern-day Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus) to act as mercenaries, pillage and sometimes trade. A retinue of these men were hired by the Roman Emperor at Constantinople to guard him, as he did not trust any local soldiers due to the internal political struggle.
