l can only imagine these irish monks in iceland seeing giant hulking men get off their long boats on the shores of their island , truly terrifying
buhuhuhu.
They were about 5'8 at that time.
@@mrheck5311 still pretty tall, also if you include their helmets and boots can make them 5'10-6'0.
Thank you for the positive feedback, appreciate it :)

Could you plz make one on Denmark or Finland?

You forgot how Olaf the holy, King of Norway, forced Icelanders to convert to Christianity or face death.
Had to leave out some details ;) Also I think you might be thinking of Olav Tryggvason. He sent Tangbrand a Saxon priest to Iceland. Tangbrand wasn't very successful and he killed a few people. When Tangrand returned to Olav with the bad news Olav got mad, and (as I understand) he threaten to kill all the Icelanders in a town, but they got baptized instead. This is all from the sagas anyway, and is only semi-historical at best :)
Speaking of Olaf the Holy, I'm very cautious about all sources covering this person as he was used heavily as a propaganda tool for Christianity, meaning much of the info is falsified. You might have heard about "the Battle of Stiklestad", a large battle involving Olaf. Turns out it might not have been any battle, just a story to build a decent saint for the christian faith :)
no not exactly, as i remember from 5th grade history class, a priest was sent to make us convert we did not want to but one of the chieftains thought about it at the alþing and he decided it would be more modern and practical to become christian

Like Harald Blåtands (Bluetooth's) Denmark was forced from the germans to become christians or attacked.
He forced the Norwegians too
Thanks for adding memes.
ill drink to that
I’m drunk 🥴😵

Great Video keep up the great work. Stay determined and hopefully this channel will be huge some day.
I am going to visit Iceland next month.. Looking forward to it.
I'm danish. I think it's spot on
thank you sir! very well presented and very informative!!
yes
oh man you are a hungry fella, we usually just go with a single peace of butter but you just want 'em all don't you?? :P
sorry just being funny(trying)
good video and thanks for taking the time to educate the world on my tiny country :)
lol
Iceland is a creative name xD.
Nice bro you gave lot of information. Excellent
Thanks dude :D
I'm English and didn't know about The UK occupying Iceland in WW2 or the "cod wars" whoops sorry
We won Britain in the cod wars Xd
Call of duty wars xD
Sweet gentle & just beautiful
Thank you :)
Your pronunciation was fine but you said "Smjörin" instead of "Smjörið". ;)
Great video, but you forgot my favorite, albeit minor part of Iceland’s history. Jørgen Jørgensen’s coup d’etat of the Icelandic government in 1809. I definitely recommend looking into it, not just the coup but also jørgen himself, very interesting man.
That guy deserves a movie :)
this video is very good he dosent take a long time explaining the things and i like the chill mood you have this could be used in my school
Great video but it leaves out the large Irish component to the early settlement waves.
Cool Video. =D
yo loved the video really ! I think you should keep the devil's lettuce out of the vid so the whole stays fully family friendly. Besides that thank you for your time and work
A little lettuce is just good for you ;)
Tack
What about pytheas of massalia???
Cool dude, but I felt he was out of the scope of this video :)
@@sagastube how was he out of scope??? This was the (maybe) first report of iceland.
@@user-ls3tl2vm7s to my knowledge, it is disputed if he even was there, so I felt it was out of scope to include a tangent on that topic. But I might be wrong, it is quite hard figuring out what bits are important to include :D
Ég er frá Íslandi/ I'm from Iceland:)
Áfram með smjörið!
Go with butter!
Amazing video, I´m from Mexico and I learned so much about Iceland
Not a word about the mighty ducks
hahaha :D
Such a nice voice to listen to 🙌🏽🙌🏽💯☺️
Same! its a good video.
Cool video it's really true to my home
I researched this site to find information on a solid Brass Plate/Dish Molded of Major Icelandic's Historic site ( It is all in Native Icelandic script). Can any one tell me anything about it? By the way I loved the video history of Iceland !
Glad you liked it :) personally I'm unfamiliar with this brass plate, I would recommend you to write a post on Reddit about it to increase your likelihood of a constructive answer, either on the Iceland or history board (just Google "Reddit Iceland"). Hope this helps.
Thought I was German and Scottish .but my newly arrived DNA says 84 % Icland and the remaining is Scottish? Bizarre! Don’t know if I believe it …?
Which DNA test service did you use? They are not 100 % accurate from what I have read. It can still be worth looking into, if you know the family name you can search for it in church records for example
Are you ever going to do more videos?
Yes! I'm making one at the moment. The plan is to record the audio this week 😊
@@sagastube Which country is it?
@@pearspeedruns It's about Finland. I also have an early script for Denmark, but I might do other countries first. Are there any contries you would like to see rather sooner than later?
@@sagastube No, I’m just interested in watching the video on Finland
THATS MEEEEEEE
:D
fine
Ok so he says alþing when its alþingi
ther was no black deth in iceland sorry for my bad speleng
Says who? All my sources indicate that it was, e.g.: books.google.es/books?cad=0&hl=es&id=KjLHAOE7irsC&printsec=frontcover&source=gbs_ge_summary_r#v=onepage&q=iceland&f=false
@@sagastube When is your next video? Cannot wait for it XD
@@luxembourgishempire2826 hopefully soon :)
the old cleveland indians logo is a hate symbol just fyi
Thanks, I know this now, but I didn't at the time of making. The logo controversy hit international news in 2020, a few years after this was made.
Im icelandic half is a lei
Þetta er eh 50/50 samt nógu gott þetta er sirka rétt
Sorry for the late reply. If you found any mistakes please state them and sources so I can update the description.
@@sagastube there are alot of things however you got most of it correct 👍
What's with the racist cartoon at 2:23 ?
It's the logo of Cleveland Indians. It's not intended as racist, this video was made before the indians changed their logo and name. It's also an editing mistake I did that made it only appear for a few seconds. The only message here is some extra info about a theory that conflicts with the natives ended the Norse settlements. It would be more accurate to show native Canadians, but I didn't know a lot about copyright at the time of asking this, so my image pool was rather limited. Hope that clears it up 😊
You ar sengit rong is Icelind
2:23 you including a racist caricature makes this video absolutely disgusting and racist
Sorry for the late reply, I didn't see this one. Thanks for pointing it out. I know this now, but I didn't at the time of making. The logo controversy hit international news in 2020, a few years after this was made. Also please stop misusing the word racist.
Drink a cup of water plz. Your mouth sounds sticky
iceland was never a kingdom, exept apart of the danish kingdom,
They were a "independent" kingdom with a Danish king, so they still were a kingdom. Read up on "Danish-Icelandic Act of Union" for more information :)
they had freedom of self covering but under danish rule... iceland never had a independent king.. they where ruled by denmark/ as you say a danish king, it was the kingdom of danmark not iceland
beiwni Það var samt kallað Konungsríkið Ísland í nokkur ár þótt að við höfðum ekki konung. Svolítið eins og Kanada er sjálfstætt land en Elísabet Bretadrottning er samt tæknilega enþá þjóðarleiðtoginn (stjórnar samt engu).
Exactly Arni :)
