      Exactly. Cnut the Great died 1035, while Alfred the Great (father of Edward, who fought Cnut in the series) died in 899.
      Totally different time!

      Yeah TLK does not condense time like that as Vikings did, the author actually tried to keep historically chronicled events accurate while fictionalizing the filler. Most of the Danes are fictional characters as Alfred pretty much chose to only chronicle the christian converts. Ubbe and Guthrum were real, and just like history it's sort of unclear whether Ubbe is actually the son of Ragnar Lothbrok

      The last kingdom was great for 3 seasons (especially 2nd season) but I started watching a few episodes of season 4 and I couldn't continue, the writing was crap and some of the new actors were painful to watch. Unfortunately, the show got new screenwriters for season 4 who are simply not good enough. I'm reading the books atm and they are decent.
      The show went downhill after the death of Alfred, much like GOT after the death of Tywin.
