In the Epic poem Macbeth who was king of Norway?

The play doesn't explicitly name the King of Norway. We only know that he is a powerful and ambitious king who is eager to reclaim the land that belonged to his father.

The play suggests that King Duncan's predecessor might have been Norwegian, as the opening scene mentions that King Duncan fought a battle against the Norwegians and "won the day".

However, we don't get a name or a specific title for the King of Norway. The focus is on the internal conflict in Scotland, and the Norwegian king is merely a threat that appears and disappears quickly.
