How the Wends Rose Up and Crushed Viking Power

This video uncovers the nearly forgotten story of the Wends, the fierce Slavic tribes who rose from the Baltic coast and challenged the dominance of the Vikings. Long overshadowed by Norse sagas, the Wends were powerful warriors, skilled sailors, and relentless raiders who pushed back against Scandinavian expansion.

We explore the geopolitical landscape of Northern Europe, the battles that defined the Wend–Viking conflict, and the strategic advantages that allowed the Wends to disrupt centuries of Norse supremacy. Their pagan beliefs, fortified settlements, and naval innovations reveal a civilization far more advanced than most people realize.

Through archaeology, medieval chronicles, and military analysis, we bring to life the culture, warfare, and legacy of a people who changed the balance of power in the North.
