It would be the exact same situation and reaction if it were a white person who, for example, portrayed a chinese emperor.

It detracts from the authenticity that a tv-series set in history is supposed to emulate to make the setting believable. The creators of the show make the show purposefully worse when all that is needed to fix it is authentic casting for the time period.

So not only is history being changed to promote "the message" but also, biology is being changed to promote "the message". Also, why do women in shows only need 2 or 3 days of training to beat men who trained their entire lives? So not only are women somehow physically stronger than all men in these shows, but they are somehow that much smarter as well, as it only takes them a matter of days to learn all the skills than it takes a man a lifetime to learn?

@TheMayhemEra idk but there were black vikings One of the best books that helps people separate Viking fact from fiction on this issue is A History of the Vikings by historian Gwyn Jones. In the book, Jones offers evidence that there were people with different racial profiles among Scandinavian people, including during the Viking age. The viking peoples who lived between the neck of Jutland and the Lofotens, Sogn, and Uppsala, were not all alike, and emphatically not of one ‘pure’ nordic race. But two main types of Scandinavian have always been recognizable: the one tall of stature, fair or ruddy complexioned, light-haired, blue-eyed, long of face and skull; the other shorter, dark-complexioned, brown- or dark-haired, brown-eyed, broad-face and round of skull.” (

Also a female “lords” wouldn’t go by the title of Lord ----- they would be called Lady ------, and rest assured that in reality very rarely did you have unmarried women ruling over a city.

Geirmund Heljarskinn(850-905) is the only dark-skinned Viking we know of. Heljarskinn means dark skin. His mother was from Mongolia. His father was king of Western Norway. Gjermund lost the royal title to Harald Hårfagre (Fairhair). He settled in Iceland and became Iceland's richest man. He had several hundred Christian slaves. He also had a harem of slave women from Ireland and Scotland. Several Icelanders carry on his DNA.

I'll give it a try. Though I'll miss the dark tones and ethereal vibe of old. BUT if this is the direction they are going then make it 100% true to the source without embellishments. The sagas that we know already have great possibilities of having been embellished. And most likely were. Since the passing age of oral law,history, etc to written "documentation" during an era of wArship of the Gods and conquering and conversion of the remaining defeated (if any) the stories we have of both sides are written by only one. The winner. And has been ever since.

Is thorfin is it since he was a famous Viking from that timeline ?

Sorry POC weren't in northern Europe at the time. Blackwashing European/English Medieval culture is definitely a thing and its 100% a bad trend. Makes it look like a Key and Peele skit.

This was after vikings made peace with English Kings and nobles so the Kings let the vikings settle and let them have land but then the Kings ended up killing and destroying the vikings and their villages on St brice's day it was known as St brice's massacre so that's what they mean in the trailer when they say "avenge vikings"

The so called massacre has been disputed by historians as not many victims have been identitified and the bodies that have been found have all been that of warriors. As well as this no villages were razed, only danes living outside the danelaw were threatened and the 'massacre' was ordered not only because there was a discovered conspiracy to worry about but also despite the so called peace Vikings continued to raid England.

The people in South Appalachia today in the US are their modern descendants.

@Rpa Vangchhia One of the best books that helps people separate Viking fact from fiction on this issue is A History of the Vikings by historian Gwyn Jones. In the book, Jones offers evidence that there were people with different racial profiles among Scandinavian people, including during the Viking age. The viking peoples who lived between the neck of Jutland and the Lofotens, Sogn, and Uppsala, were not all alike, and emphatically not of one ‘pure’ nordic race. But two main types of Scandinavian have always been recognizable: the one tall of stature, fair or ruddy complexioned, light-haired, blue-eyed, long of face and skull; the other shorter, dark-complexioned, brown- or dark-haired, brown-eyed, broad-face and round of skull.” (

If this "sequel" were soft, 2 ply and absorbent you could do something appropriate with it

that borderline dubstep music for that trailer is so unfitting.

This series has nothing on the original Vikings, wouldn't go recommending it to anyone that's for sure. 5/10 if that

Saw it, from a historic perspective it was terrible, as this is my country’s history thought in school, second, it was borring and badly structured, finding it hard to care for any of the caracters.
