Is it true that Iceland formally adopted Christianity by a decision of the Althing around the year 1000?

Yes. A peer-reviewed article on the acceptance of Christianity in Iceland states the conversion at the Althing in the year 1000 was a religious and political decision, and a Wikipedia article on the Christianization of Iceland says the Althing of 1000 CE legally made Christianity the official religion. Other sources mention adoption around the year 1000 without naming the Althing.
