It's nice to see Scandanavians getting along so well. So when does the bloodshed start and the raping and pillaging.
The History Channel is going to have a series on about vikings and the Monguls and they're calling it - "The Barbarians are Coming" They also have the "Civilize the Barbarian Photo Contest" Quote:
I think Ruinel is going to be bringing the popcorn for the big fight. Can't wait - I'm getting hungry.

A recent test just proved that Norwegians are best at understanding the other languages in our neighbourhood (Denmark, Sweden and Norway), and on the same page it was claimed by a Swede and a Dane that Norwegian was the easiest language.

An actual headline from a Spanish newspaper before the infamous WC qualic football match between Norway and Spain in last year. Don't ask for the results...

I wouldn't say their trading was a result of their pillaging.

I'm sure that's an oversimplification - and eventually the players got bigger - someone had a small kingdom and went out raiding with a fleet of ships - maybe even to take over some other area (like Normandy in France - or part of England or Ireland or whatever). |

I'll probably watch it so I can see how uncivilized the Scandanvians are/were.

Though I must admit that the Vikings and Harald Hardrada's story, is fascinating. We learned all about the Battle of Hastings in school and all that. Medieval history was fun! *Goes off in search of Norse myth* |
