When we are done with the Viking age, and then the Norman Conquest, we should follow the Normans to Italy while interjecting stories about the in fighting in France and Frisia and Scandinavia, perhaps some on the formation of Germany, and then on to the Crusades. You should do a whole playlist covering everything, from the first call to arms and the people's crusade to the fateful Friday the 13th that saw the Templars axed. The politics of the Crusades on all sides (there are at least three Christian sides and three Muslim sides, and that is not even counting all the city states and their territories and varying allegiances), and the stories that sprang from then are so misunderstood. Would be great seeing it all on your maps and pictures.

I once told a Danish friend that it seemed like a strange contradiction that today Scandinavians are amount the most peaceful and civilized people in the world, yet they they descend from the Vikings who were ferocious warriors. My friend's explanation: "We got it out of our system."
@@D9Wx cringe as fuck bro
I don't believe they were any more ruthless than any of the other farm burning, slave taking people's of the time. Not all of them even went viking. They were just really, really good at it when they did, heh. Still a funny response from your buddy.

Vikings one of the best shows I've ever watched and I am so sorry that Travis didn't won anything for portraying Ragnar.
I'm just about to finish season 4 part 1,and I've also ordered a blu ray box set of season 1 to 5. One of the best shows I've ever seen.

Travis . Played the role of ragnar. Was so damm good. You can feel his emotions by looking at his eyes.
He was ragnar
Agreed, one of the best performances of all times
Idiots .
Alexander Ludwig's portrayal of Bjorn is very underrated- notice as Bjorn gets older, he gradually looks, acts, and talks more and more like Ragnar. It's most obvious in the cadence of his speech, he matched Travis Fimmel's inflections more and more as the series goes on, along with facial expressions and hand gestures- always with a little bit of Lagertha in there too. It truly makes them believable as a family unit, and not just actors pretending to be a family.
He has very expressive eyes
He also rode from Rorikstead to Whiterun, but that's a tale for another time.
He also survived a dragon attack on Helgen
HAHAHAHA :-D
One time, he took an arrow to he’s knee .
Well, according to Saxo, Odin and his sons came from an area close to the Black Sea, subjugated the locals and established not only a religion but a thousand year old kingdom, perhaps still living in the current Frankish crown Prince HRM Frederik.

Agree. I like how I grew up hearing mostly a negative view of Viking culture. Good thing I was born into Germanic culture of which the attitude is drastically different. Plus, it’s also hilarious that some highly ignorant internet historians assert that the Vikings didn’t have a sophisticated documented history. So, I’m all like, really? Okie dokey🙂
To be fair Ragnar is semi-historic and semi-mythological, all of these stories may be nonsense, few Christians believe Jesus' life is literal so why believe that Ragnar's saga is fact? This information interests me as my surname is Ladbrook which some say derives from one of Ragnar's daughters, of which personally I am not convinced.
Power is always dangerous. It attracts the worst. And corrupts the best. I never asked for power. "Power is only given to those who are prepared to lower themselves to pick it up.” - Ragnar Lothbrok - Great lines
This is why I say policing should be run like jury service. You should be dragged kicking & screaming into the police. Anyone who seeks power over their fellow man is obviously of completely the wrong psychological make up.
Wanting to be a policeman should preclude you from doing so.
i agree . I personally want freedom over power any Day.

If you care; in real life he wasnt called Floki, it was actually Floke. Anglonizing is at fault.
I just wish he didn’t kill Athelstan... that hurt Ragnar’s soul. 😞
Seeing how ragnars sons avenged his death in vikings was one of the most satisfying moments in any series history. I got goosebumps when just moments before the war the camera focuses on the brothers and björn making that angry badass face like he can't wait for blood to be spilled
When the Germans insisted that you’re one of their kids, because they already know your grandpa gave zero f*cks😎
Epic moment of the saga but Bjorn leading his army against the russ after being stabbed by ivar tops that
Ironically, I'm descended from Bjorn, Sigurd and King Aella. Also both Rollo and the Carolingian kings of Frankia whom he plagued, but not through his wife Gisela.
@@nikbarber6452 I really enjoyed the atmosphere and energy of the series, but it annoyed me that they conflated Ragnar and Rollo as brothers, when they were a century apart.
@@jturtle5318 damn! That's awesome tbh. It's mind-blowing how a single death in history of someone who had many kids would have resulted in a completely different humans today.
If Bjorn died during childbirth millions of people won't exist today.
Loved the video! I've been reading the Viking Sagas since Vikings came out on the History Channel. Travis Fimmel should have won a Golden Globe for his portrayal of Ragnar!
totally agree.
Jaimie Johnson Agreed!! I’ve taken an interest since watching the show. Glad it’s opened my eyes to interesting facts and fables, I did the ancestry t23 and me, and have ancestors from these areas. Enjoy history and these videos are so much more accurate than the what the history channel shows...

"Don't waste your time looking back. You're not going that way."
Edit: Okay, so after like 2 years and a comment that attempted to explain, I am explaining why I posted this- and yeah, it's pretty dumb. Ragnar Lothbrok said the line to Bjorn in the show "Vikings", when he looked back at his hometown as they were sailing away, I think to go fight someone? I don't remember too well since it's been a couple years. The context is important. To those saying it's short-sighted, you misunderstand the purpose of the line.
I believe the meaning to be that if you're spending all your time looking back at the past, the places you used to be, etc., you'll miss what's ahead of you. Obviously it doesn't mean to not look back; you're missing the second part of the quote. You aren't going that way. You're going forwards, not backwards, so while it's important to look back every now and then to remember and learn, your focus should be ahead. Never forget where you've been, but don't sit and stare at it, carry it with you to the voyage ahead.
TLDR; You misunderstood the quote
David Blankenship he who forgets the past is destined to make the same mistakes again
How can you navigate without knowing where you’ve been. You’ll just go in circles.
History repeats itself. If you want to know the future look at past.
@@jonathanreyes2781 I heard it illustrated once that the past is like a rear view mirror you glance back but obviously staring at it for too long would be detrimental.
looking back helps to know where you come from and where you presently are...
It may help to find the right direction to follow...
If you rush forward, it's risky and often misleading....
They didn’t pick Easter Sunday to invade to humiliate, they picked it because most leaders and soldiers would be in church

Loki: Yup😎
I am still in process watching vikings... and it's incredibly amazing
Credits to Floki the boat builder 😂 #VIKINGS
He was the first one to sail outside Scandinavia. floki the great. There were no relations between floki and ragnar as shown in vikings.
@@someone-en1gg Nothing in Vikings makes sense so...
@@someone-en1gg The first one to sail outside scandinavia.... What are you talking about? Lots of people sailed outside of scandinavia before the viking times. The viking series is just fantasy madeup with some myths.
@@TheBarser so who were they?
@@someone-en1gg Well the jutes and angles invaded the british islands a few 100 of years before that for a start. There was trade going on by ship from all over scnadinavia long before the viking age.
Ragnar: "I will walk the halls of Valhalla with Odin at my side and my death comes without apology!" Such powerful acting and story telling, I find it absurd Travis Flimmel and several other actors and actresses didn't get an Emmy or Golden Globe for their role in the Vikings. I found out after finishing the last series that Ragnar was based on an actual Viking and I had to find out myself if this was true or not, so glad I learned some history today.
Ok, but who gives a shit about golden globes anyway, Hollywood BS awards.
Inspired by a story to learn a bit of history... I to was inspired.
It’s really sad that ppl try to hide this mans history for their own good, this man is a legend. There is plenty of stories that proves his life in many countries, especially Britain. Give this man his roses, he was a legend.
Plus rolo started Normandy good people who needed better land to enjoy prosperity 🙏 so they started to viking and the assimilated and became a huge part and influenced of the western society. Also Russian as well German Scotland they didn't disappear they became
I suspect that if REAL authentic ancient history was ever truly miraculously unveiled we would be amazed on how wrong we have been on so many dates, people and events. Makes me wish for "time travel" just as voyeurs to real events and people.
klaus carr I think about this all the time! 🤔💭
I always wonder how accurate these legends and stories are.
It would be a grounded experience i think.reality rarely lives up to the legend.

Because you are a real Viking. Greetings from Serbia
April Kolakovich -Osen / Do you ever read the Viking Sagas in www.gutenberg.com?
Its wild when you think of Viking as a people. The lineages during the rise of Christianity and the time of the glorified viking warrior like we remember today, we weren't a people of Scandinavia alone. Our bloodlines were mixed with cultures from all over Europe. If your civilization was raided by Vikings, guaranteed children were bore. I'm sure many of the warrior clans were the same, such as the Polynesians and Romans.
I love seeing this, I remember learning all these stories as a kid in scool! Im from Iceland and they teach us about Ragnar Loðbrók and Leif Eiríksson and all the orhers as history we have all these stories documented very well.
Mentioning Ragnar and Leif in the same sentence doesn’t really make sense though. It’s like saying “Yes, in school we learned about Abraham Lincoln and also the Easter Bunny. We have documented these two historical figures well”
You’re very lucky .born in Iceland.
How cool was it to listen to these tales of the awesome and powerful Vikings. This was great to watch as it gives me some insight on how the TV show was produced on past history and legend. Just finished binge-watching all 6 seasons of the Vikings TV show the last month and it was awesome. 👍
There are a lot of great history channels here on YT but I really have to stress that yours is one of my all time favourites. IMO your quality is right up there with Historia Civilis as far as I'm concerned. Thanks for another great vid.

-Ragnar Lothbrok
Only watched this because I am a big fan of Travis Fimmel. Rollo might be the most known through history. But Ragnar is known all because one man made him so bloody cool. Long live King Ragnar
Ragnar Lodbrok, Lothbrok, Lóðbrok was a viking born in Uppland, Sweden to the Swedish king Sigurd Ring that ruled over Denmark as well he was father to Björn Ironside. It's always so annoying when people only watching Netflix thinks he was Danish or Norwegian.
we don't know who Ragnar really was he is thought to be a Danish King nobody know where he was born he may have been the son of Sigurd Ring who was Swedish that is correct , and maybe that is why his son was called Halvdan ? half a Dane
Really nice documentary, really enjoyed every second of it, thank you on your work :)
I actually love this man, the info is ace and to point. The tone is oerfect to both be a story to listen and one to sleep to. Keep it up. I feel the story you tell 🖤👌
I still remember when I saw the "Vikings" clip of Ragnar's death the day after the episode first aired. As soon as I saw King Aella in the thumbnail, I knew this was it. We all knew this day would come, but it was still such a shock because until then the entire show revolved around Ragnar. The whole thing gives me a feeling that Vikings and modern day Norse paganism practitioners might see it from an emotional and spiritual standpoint similarly to how Christians feel when they watch Crucifixion reenactments like "The Passion of the Christ" because this is their hero who is being brutally tortured and killed and yet he accepts and embraces his fate.
Just watching this awesome series now on Amazon how has it took me so long to watch this don’t want it to end it’s amazing
Man idk why, but history just amazes me. Either it’s ufo, Wild West days, vikings... etc. idk why I have a longing for the past lol

I'm a huge game of thrones fan, well I was until they got tiered and screwed it up big time.
But vikings in in a whole different league of its own I was hooked from eps 1 s1 the whole show puts game of thrones to shame and I don't know why it's not up there as big and as talked about as game of thrones.
Vikings is hands down the best TV series I've ever seen and I've seen alot,
The acting is effortlessly done and I hang on every word I just hope the writers end it well in part b s6 it would be a tragically sad story if it ended like game of thrones no effort just neglected
Please hope that it ends well.
Yup, binge-watched the first season last night... Normally I don't watch tv that often, but this got me good.
Indeed, it is a great serie, yet I would rate Breaking Bad, The Wire, The Sopranos easily above it. Those series contain way more depth imo.
Nah. After ragnar lothbrok, no one could really carry the show. They stopped being historically accurate. Just seemed like the writers were making shit up just to keep the show going. And da fuq is up with lagertha? Why doesnt she age? At all!
@JayoJay its because it was based off on a series of books and the author has not finished it yet. They ran out of source material and made up things
@@leonard9624 I'm sure every GoT fans knows that. Show would have been better if Martin stopped being lazy and finished those books.

I believe scholars doesn't really know if the history of Ragnar and all his achievements and deeds was just one person, or a collection of stories and deeds from various people, either mistaken as Ragnar, portraying themselves as Ragnar, or if the stories simply ''inserted'' Ragnar for dramatic effects due to the legendary, almost mythical connection his name had at that time.

Fascinating :) Thank you for making this! Watched this for a school project.
Loved it 😍 thank you for sharing 😊👍
Good video, just to add some additional information:
If you have watched the TV show Vikings, you may have noticed that the director have taken alot of liberties based on historical events, to make it into a watchable TV serie, as a few examples:
Ragnar Lothbrok may, or may not have been a single person, but various individuals throughout viking history who did various deeds, and the stories ultimately came together forming the legend of Ragnar Lothbrok-- while the individual most likely existed, many of Ragnar's accomplishments or actions might actually have been several individuals throughout viking history, it is also not 100% clear if Ragnar came from what is today Norway, Sweden or Denmark. In the TV series, Rolo/Rolv/Rolf/Gange Rolf is depicted as his brother, but this holds no truth in actual history, while Rolo became duke of Normandie, he and Ragnar lived in two completely different time periods and therefore never met one another.
Lol a great TV show all 6 seasons. .Thanks for what you think may or not be true but who cares. Read true history well the history books speak of one ragnar
Viking was an amazing show. I as a man was never more moved by brotherhood and loyalty . And honor. It did show betrayel. But it was always handled.

Too great Ragnar Lothbrok I love this and want more of their legendary
just need to mention that boiled cowhide armor--cuir buie--is extremely effective, and if one guy was doing it when no one else did, he would have a huge melee advantage. it's sturdy stuff. in many ways comparable to chain mail with gambeson. so, "magic hairy pants" isn't as mythical as it sounds. great videos. thanks for your work.
Awesome, one of my favorite historical figures!
In England there are still some street's which were named by these Vikings ..
They look so Scandinavian ..
Absolutely worth watching
Please, a plural does not have an an apostrophe: streets.
Great maps and amazing documentary! Well done
It's interesting how Vikings the TV show rearranged many of those events; like Ragnar destroying the smaller army in Mercia instead of Francia. But I love the show anyway; it might have little historical accuracy but makes up for it with excellent story telling.
Man, that's cool !
So glad you do the research, so we might all enjoy it !👍
Thanks for watching !
5:43 *You can hear Ragnar (from the TV show Vikings) yell “STAND!” from a battle scene.*
Stand?
@@stomper5432 yes, it's the opposite of sitting
@@stomper5432 but not quite jumping. It's in between sitting and jumping.
Imagine what things they all saw and did, imagine being in their head and seeing it with your own eyes and really going through all of that
