Very good video for new comers to learn about the Viking era, nicely balanced details and not making it confusing. (Since the Viking times were long and a lot of events happened). Great video!
@Lenny Murphy rudeness is merely the expression of fear. Not the same as trolling. Something you should have learned in school kid...but not from books.
In Norway we are taught that the viking age ended with the battle at spiklestad as king olaf died and became a saint. The story goes that his hair and nails kept growing to show that christianity is the true religion
It's also an undeniable biological action. When a person dies their hair and nails continue to grow for about 3 months (I think) after death. It's similar to reactions the body does that made Europeans in the 18th century believe vampires were real after exhuming the bodies of suspected 'vampires'
@@akakios7386 Coo stuff. Thanx I love most Norse lore and history. Odin/Woden & GUNGNIR the most But I was just being stupid lol I am a "Viking-Zombie-Ninja-Vampire" And don't try to top that by adding the word "Slayer" at the end of that, cuz I am that too. It just doesn't sound as coo.
Vikings were Nordics of Ethnicity. Just to get that straight. Were mostly of Anglo Jutland descent (Denmark) Southern Norway to Trondheim. From Gotland to Uppsala in Sweden. I am one myself. So no debate about race. Classic Nordic Østerdal types with more extreme Nordic features from the Anglo belt through North Germany into Denmark and Southern Norway. Some were Fælisk/Frisian/Blond Brachycephals, though, mostly long-faced (Above 95 units in Facial index) and below 75 in Cephalic index = dolichocephalic skulled. Leptorrhine Nasal in the low indexes 60 - 46 (Average in the 50s). Golden and Rufous/rufosity in pigmentation, with stern dark blue eyes with sometimes a blend of grey or white showing.
Friday is Freja’s day, not Frigg’s. Also the day names come from the Anglo-Saxon’s pagan days, men vi dansker gav mange mere ord til Engelsk og bynavner til øst og nord England.
For future reference Newfoundland is pronounced Newfun-land not New-finland or New-found-land. Sorry if this comes across rude, only meaning to be helpful eh
Tolkien took a lot of inspiration from Nordic mythology. I am from Sweden, I viking and a LOTR-fan ;) Like elves...thats from "asatron" the religion that we viking have/has
Yes the coasts of Britain used to look a lot different the grey parts are basically indicating what the coasts used to look like :) sorry for late reply hope this helps
@Bjorn Blood Born they won't do that, they love the Arabs to much. The country will be ruled by Arabs in another 20 years. What a disgrace of scandanavia.
majority of Danish Vikings had red hair dna study show and Swedes blonde hair, not sure about Norweigians, since Scandinavians have never been all blonde (or red haired) there would have been brown and ash hair as today, black hair would only be if a Viking married a woman with black hair from another country, the people they married from other countries and the child then had black hair and became a Viking, however most of the people they mixed with were from UK, Baltic nations, Finns and Slavic people like from Poland and Russia so not a lot of people with black hair, but there were Sami in between and maybe some further south although more rare
Why isn there any writings about vikings before the 6th century ?? Suck a large number of people and such a powerfull people should have been mention before thr 6th century but no one methions them , not the Greeks ,romans, ancient egyptians ,brits its litterly like the vikings came out of no where and no one knew them. There is no any writting history about vikings before the 6th century. Its weird
some Finns probably adopted the Viking culture as did Sami and Baltic people, I heard some say Rurik who founded Kievan Rus was actually of Finnish decent, however generally Finns were not Vikings, and there are not Scandinavians as they speak a totally diff. language part of Urelic languages not Germanic, so it is closer to Estonian, Sami and same family as Hungarian
I don't know why Viking Age doesn't touch upon other cultures that went a viking. The whole area around the baltic sea was constantly raiding eachother well before the viking age aswell. The oldest longboat with a sail in the Baltic sea was also found on an Estonian island.

Putting the Bluetooth symbol on that guys shield was perfect! Nice.
Pretty sure that's where it came from in the first place
the bluetooth symbol is a rune.
Blue tooth was a VIKING and he was given the name because of his ability to learn and speak so many languages
H (ᚼ) and B (ᛒ). The Bluetooth logo is a combination of his initials in runic.
@@larryjayhamilton6718 also he stained his teeth blue. Not kidding.
Now we’re talking! Great stuff man. Would love to see one of these on the Anglo-Saxons 🤟
Definitely!
I'm a simple man I see vikings i click
Hell yeah

We brought a great influence to many civilisations
thank you so much for making this video for children

Thank you, after effects for those ink reveals just takes a lot of time to create. Illustrator for drawings

What about the
"Viking-Vampires"
@@benparrish672 I assume you mean the Draugr. They were effectively the closest thing to a "vampire" the Norse told stories of.

Odin/Woden & GUNGNIR the most

Love this video! Good job making this wonderful video keep up the good work
Putting the Bluetooth simbol on the shield was an amazing touch
Stfu
@@shaneteas6579 wtf is your problem
Yeah slavers, warriors, fighters, battlers, traders, dealers, conflicters, shippers, handlers, swimmers, or and rowers
Great overview of the Vikings! Very enjoyable video!
Thank You ....
Interesting To Note, "Well Spoken". Thxs., Merci.
What platform or game are you using for the battles and soldier’s marching? I need to find out because I’m trying to make videos like this myself!
This is the most informative video about vikings I ever saw, well done you researched well but vikings were in general Norse people
Imagine if you read a book
I'm just being a jerk
Us Scandinavians took England, England took half the world = Scandinavians won the world
@Noah Pritchett Jag vet, vi vann sa jag. Vi var några av era första kungar ;)

finally a video that isnt from the 2000's
New-found-land not new-fin-lind
What game was that
Friday is Freja’s day, not Frigg’s. Also the day names come from the Anglo-Saxon’s pagan days, men vi dansker gav mange mere ord til Engelsk og bynavner til øst og nord England.

Is Lindisfarne where the "Lindis bread" from lord of the Rings came from?

I wonder if the Vikings have black hair?
Because in most movies and photos their hair is red and blonde
Im sure some may have had, but it wouldn't be a common thing.
majority of Danish Vikings had red hair dna study show and Swedes blonde hair, not sure about Norweigians, since Scandinavians have never been all blonde (or red haired) there would have been brown and ash hair as today, black hair would only be if a Viking married a woman with black hair from another country, the people they married from other countries and the child then had black hair and became a Viking, however most of the people they mixed with were from UK, Baltic nations, Finns and Slavic people like from Poland and Russia so not a lot of people with black hair, but there were Sami in between and maybe some further south although more rare

What about King Cnut the great
Just watch Vinland Saga lol

2:04 house of bluetooth?
Yes hes the actual person that bluetooth got thier name from
Caelan Erikson "The Man From The North" wielded a HellForged Spear and was a warrior king
I thought the Finns were also Vikings. 🤔

One word "Valhalla"
I don't know why Viking Age doesn't touch upon other cultures that went a viking. The whole area around the baltic sea was constantly raiding eachother well before the viking age aswell. The oldest longboat with a sail in the Baltic sea was also found on an Estonian island.

Congrats :p
So we're Anglo Saxons, Norseman? So there were two invasions of England??
@Lenny Murphy... this is now sad.

Inspired by History time ?
4 ads on a 10 min vid? Fishing hard there, bud.
this is interseting
Ragnar was not the leader on the attack on Paris. they do not know who led the army
Who else was sent here by school teachers
Who could have though pewdiepie was modern day era viking.
Many wonder why vikings have crooked teeth, well viking heritage taught me that they would use sharp tools for dental hygiene.
@Len Murphy most likely both of those things
Notice the island to the left of Ireland looks like a bird
