    Vikings was closer to true History than The Last Kingdom.. Hence why Vikings was on the History Channel. The Last Kingdom fells like it's a story that was written by one person. Mainly Because it was! Half the Characters share the exact same ignorance and make the same mistakes as one another because it all comes from one person's Thought Patterns. The Last Kingdom favors the English side of history! Whereas Vikings tells it from the Vikings point of view which is why it was more Violent and true to fact. Where are all the shield maidens in TLK? There is none because for an Englishman.. Woman should not be on the Battlefield. Don't get me wrong TLK is a great series.. but the only truths are Some Names and all the Places.. everything between is Fictional

    It was sad and great and very emotional - but they Scottish king was so contradicting. There was never really „game of thrones harem“ scenes with naked girls and suddenly there is just for nothing really - no explanation why a king kn his late 40 (?) is without wife and the scene didn’t fit to the dialogue that he is in deep love with a wife of another man (who?). This character felt like a psycho sometimes wise/calm and sometimes so „feral“. Character and decision of scenes and dialogue confused me. But otherwise great series and bridda died aswell as Aethelflead and even sigtryggr (a character fairly early in the Show) was so much of character that I felt really sad about him too.

    Royalty and monarchy are strictly tied to how feudalism came about. After the fall of the Roman Empire, citizens gradually fled the cities for the countryside in small communities. The families that founded those shelters gave room to fugitives in exchange for loyalty and part of their produce. As the shelters grew, there was need for protection and those shelters became castles. The leaders of those small kingdoms became kings or marquees or counts, princes, viscounts, queens etc... Slowly though, for one reason or another, these small kingdoms banded together in larger, powerful countries.

    In Gillingham of Dorset is an outskirt called Peacemarsh, where Cnut capitulated to Edmund Ironside after the battle of Penselwood. Ironside chased Cnut to London where Cnut regained his forces, turned round and destroyed Ironside and his army. A lot of history happened round here being close to Shaftesbury and Glastonbury and on the main trading routes between Winchester and the western lands, Gillingham is one of the oldest established towns of England, said that Joseph of Aramuthea once passed through what was a fortified trading town and kings up to Edward the Confessor had their summer hunting lodge underneath where my own flat was built. The town can also boast of Edward Rawson, the Englishman who first started the tradition of the thanksgiving speech over in the American colonies making a speech at the first formal thanksgiving dinner of the colony. Sadly his children all hated the place and one by one either died or came back to Dorset.

    Thank you for the great visuals in this video. I was just introduced to Uhtred in a video about Bamburg Castle. It looks like you used lots of illustrations from the great age of storybooks in the late 19th/early 20th century. I'm thinking Howard Pyle, N. C. Wyeth, and the Brandywine School. I'm wondering why that king was sitting on his throne in shallow water on the seashore, however.

    'The real version' has nothing to do with the story. All they share is a name and a home. The show is fairly historically accurate to what we know of the time period. The kings and the big leaders are all real but Uhtred is just fictional and was never intended to be based on a real person. The 'real' Uhtred of Bebbanburg was born about 100 years later but is the ancestor of the author of the books the series is based on and so he took the name and wrote a story set during the time of Alfred the Great. The key events are all real but they have to fill in the gaps in the story. We don't know the name of every person that was alive at that time and took part let alone what kind of person they were.

    The word feud is directly a Saxon word in use today, as are many others. Ironically, the Danish Vikings came from Jutland, now Denmark and were the descendents of the Saxon Jutes 400 years earlier. There would have been a certain commonality of language, thus enabling communication between Saxons and Danes.
