@GD5496119@HLTCO Who's to say? But the vikings at the time we seen as being sent to test /punishment for the Christians. This perception has certainly changed, even to the point of the Danes and Norse were merely traders and settlers, and the rape and pillage was a means to an end.
@GD5496119@HLTCO I agree that the English are influenced by Viking (Danish / Norse) culture (language, place names, etc), and I agree that the violence and rape / pillage inflicted by the vikings is glorified and even romanticised in modern day culture.
