Biography
Inge II Bårdsson was king of Norway between 1204 and 1217. He was the son of Cecilia (sister of king Sverre) and lendermann Bård Guttormsson from Rein.
He was elected king of the Birkebeinere in 1204 and fought against the Baglers until 1208, when the bagler king Filippus was granted the rule of Viken under Inge's suzerainty.
Inge's half-brothers Håkon Galen and Skule Bårdsson greatly influenced his rule.
Gyda from Tofte was his mistress.
