The Vikings:
were Norse seafarers, mainly speaking the Old Norse language, who raided and traded from their Northern European homelands across wide areas of northern, central, eastern and western Europe, during the late 8th to late 11th centuries. The term is also commonly extended in modern English and other vernaculars to the inhabitants of Viking home communities during what has become known as the Viking Age.
There had been made thousands of books, movies, tv shows and more on the Vikings. Some of them are good, others are bad but we can all agree that this era and its "displays" in the modern world is very interesting.
