History of the Vikings (in One Take) by History Bombs

THIS IS THE AGE OF THE VIKING...

From the first raid on Lindisfarne in 793 to the fall of Harald Hardrada in 1066, we take an exciting tour through the Viking Age.

The Vikings had a remarkable global impact. Their long boats gave them a technological advantage that enabled them to dominate the sea and establish settlements across Northern Europe.

Ivar the Boneless established Danelaw and controlled central England
for many years. Only Alfred the Great of Wessex was able to halt the Vikings advance across England by defeating Guthrum.

To the east, the Vikings were employed in modern-day Turkey as guards to Byzantine Emperors for four hundred years. The guard was called the 'Varangian Guard'.

The video also includes the intrepid explorer, Leif Erikson, who is believed to have discovered North America some 500 years before Christopher Colombus!

This video was filmed in Northern Ireland and we would like to thank Magnus Vikings for use of their fantastic longboat!

Thank you for watching :-)
