So many things were said that are totally untrue in the video. You should have someone from that culture and race who knows the detailed facts make your videos

The way she was explaining ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️…

Thank you for introducing this to people all over the world

Yea, to Viking is in actuality a seasonal profession, but it’s a bit convoluted because it’s sort of piracy, but there’s also culture involved in it so it’s kind of its separate thing. Always help to simply and just saying Viking has become more of an umbrella term for the masses and it also does have a massive branding value today. It’s simply easier to just refer the norsemen as Vikings instead of giving the standard explanation.

Interesting documentary. I still get confused about the events that took place within England during the Norman occupation.

very good

Rollo of Normandy (aka Hrolfr) was the great-great-great grandfather of William I of Normandy (William The Conqueror). I am a decedent of them and therefore I am very interested in Viking history, and Scandinavian history in general. This is a good video.

Hi from Denmark, good video and thanks for the real depiction, of the real World of scandinavia in the viking age ( sometimes one would Think, We were all once berserkers Up here)

Interesting video! It’s great to learn about different cultures. Why do you use Christian Era (CE) and Not Anno Domini (AD)?

@@WorldHistoryEncyclopedia I read the article and it is lacking that Jesus birth is about 4 years off from what year it is. “Common” not Christian Era or AD takes always from what it means. Read the book Under the Influence, How Christianity Influenced Civilization, for a multitude of evidence that it should be AD.

CE is common era

Not all Vikings were Scandinavians. Anglo Saxons, Normans and Slavs joined Viking Raiding Parties.

Please get rid of the echo

Oeselians or Osilians is a historical name for the people who prior to the Northern Crusades in the 13th century lived in the Estonian island of Saaremaa (Ösel)[a] - the Baltic Sea island was also referred as Oeselia or Osilia in written records dating from around that time.[1] In Viking Age literature, the inhabitants were often included under the name "Vikings from Estonia".[2], as written by Saxo Grammaticus in the late 12th century. A battle between Estonian and Icelandic Vikings off Saaremaa is described in Njál's saga as occurring in 972 AD

Compared to its close neighbors, Saaremaa has the richest finds of Viking treasures after Gotland in Sweden. This strongly suggests that Estonia was an important transit country during the Viking era

When the Vikings existed, there was no Russia. It just didn't exist. Then there was Rus with the center in Kyiv. This country is still called Kyivan Rus. Russians simply stole the name Rus, changed it in their own way and began to call their country Russia. Before that, their country was called the Principality of Moscow. But even the Moscow principality did not exist when the Vikings were there.

Well The Rus came from north of Stockholm from Roslagan. They settled on the shores of current day St Petersburg. And the Rus name stuck, and where the name Russia comes from
