A really good book on the vikings is Robert Furgusons "The hamme and the cross". That describes it as a religious conflict. For example, there is no british source describing them as "vikings" and there is only one or two sources calling them "northmen" but a great multitude of sources describing them as "pagans".

I live in Clondalkin south-west Dublin and the old round tower that was built in the 7th century still stands in great condition. It was plundered twice by the Vikings in the 9th century and every time I pass it I wonder what it must have been like for Clondalkin residents of the 9th century when the Vikings arrived. The residents of Clondalkin were deeply religious people they must have felt like the Vikings were an army straight from Hell.

You christians should not have been crusading against us. You should not have been destroying our ancient culture. You should not have been putting on great displays of your power and arrogance such as "the babtism of Verden" and you should not have desecrated our holy sites such as when you destroyed the Irminsul. If there was hell to pay, you asked for it.

Martin Andersson I don't care about any of that. I was just pondering the scene. How crazy it must have been. I wasn't passing judgement. No need to be defensive or to try and justify shit that happened a thousand years ago. Believe me, I'm no defender of Christianity. I'm sure what you say is true but I seriously doubt that was the motivation behind the raids. Unguarded loot and land was the driving factor behind the raids. The fact we were Christians was probably just a nice little bonus.

The first Norwegian flag from 1814 was the Danish flag with a lion in it. Google for "sildesalaten" and see the terrible union-flag Sweden wanted us to have. We're NOT Swedish people and we got our independence because we had macineguns in 1905 when Sweden used the same fightingstyle as in teh American civil war. The Norwegian had Hotchkiss macineguns from 1899 and we would kill all Swedens soliders before they could get close enogh to use their antique weapons.

Lol, a couple of years ago the Spanish demanded that Danish quards or police should be stationed on a certain holiday location in the future, as the Danish youngsters terrorized the area, drinking theire brains out and scared the locals. Not really something to be proud of as a nation but a bit fun never the less.

The first raid on Bangor Abbey in county Tweed was in 823-824. Can we reasonably assume this was Thorgest? My ancestor was killed by "foreign invaders" in 958 at Bangor. Can we assume that was connected to the actions of the Ui imair (Ivar) dynasty? Thanks for the great video!

very interesting piece. however, i am uncertain about equating Norwegians with Norse as opposed to Danes. Is this really sound as I have always understood it as both Danes and Norwegians were lumped together as Norse or Danes. Just different word for essentially same people.

could you do one on the history of Brittany at this time from the home of the bagaudae uprisings to an independent kingdom and then a very rebellious supposedly French dukedom plus maybe one on the Cornish chieftains revolting against wessex a few times and occasionally enlisting Norse aid in their revolts by the way when dumbarton was raised the Alt Clud just switched centers granted they weren't as powerful but were still around until they were annexed into alba in 1018 thanks I really enjoyed

Battle of Clontarf 1014, effectively ended Viking rule in any part of Ireland. Vikings never really penetrated beyond their longforts in comparison to England. England's north and east was completely colonised under Danelaw. A North/South divide which still lasts today.

@Caca Milis sa Semra Spraoi Of course, occupying armies usually walk into a divided society. Allies, like bees to honey, soon swam around a new or potential power base. Cortez's small army marched into a Mexico, and soon tribes flocked to him. On personal level, I know Rory O'Cannon, the 172 High King of Ireland, and, apparently a tribal ancestor of my grandfather, slain a Norse-Gael army. Four Annals state: Ruaidhri Ua Canannain, decisively vanquished the Cenel Eoghain-Norse coalition. three hundred Cenel-Eoghain and Norsemen, foreigners of Loch-Feabhail, were slain, together with Maelruanaidh, son of Flann, heir apparent of the North. This victory established Rory O'Cannon's supremacy over the northern Ui Neill and resulted in the historian Gwynn describing him as "Rory O'Cannon King of Aileach." Upshot is: few countries are united. Ui Neill's demise begins with the internecine warfare among the O'Cannon tribe, once the leading sept among the Ui Neill.This intra Ui Neill warfare was responsible for the rise of Brian Boruma, who would become the first Ui Neill outsider to claim the throne of Tara in six hundred years.

People hold onto blue eyes being a viking descent sign . DNA shows plenty of people of the viking times had Brown eyes and hair .yes there was blue eyes and blonde hair and red hair but the peoples back then we're not as fair haired in numbers as they are across scandanavia today. True you can be of Scandinavian descent and have blue eyes but you also can having brown . You can have blue eyes and have no Scandinavian heritage. Just like many Irish are of dark hair and eyes the majority in fact .
