    The Animated HIstory of Sweden | Part 1: • [ARCHIVE] Sweden Episo...
    Denmark. Once the centre of the Viking world. From their homeland stretching from Scania to Jutland, and the Kattegat Strait in between, they became rulers of the Baltic sea.
    The Danes were the most powerful and most active of the Vikings, plundering most of the known world before disappearing on their longships back to their northern home. But plunder soon was not enough, and they turned their eyes to conquest, carving out the Danelaw in northern England as well as settlements in Ireland, France and subjugating Norway.
    But out of the once feared Viking state, a new crusading force would emerge, but their control of northern waters would not change.

      Finland is not really part of Scandinavia, although it has been under scandinavian rule from time to time. Scandinavia is a historical term used by the romans (who did not conquer Scandinavia) about 2000 years ago to describe the land which is now Denmark, Norway and Sweden.

      No doubt about Jelling being the Capital of Danish Viking society!
      But the stones were not just to proclaim the unification of Denmark but also Harald converting the Danish people to Christians by turning Christian himself.
      There's even a street next to the church called Popovej named after the monk/priest Popo that made the king change beliefs.
      But the Roskilde part, ehhhhhh, that's a big yikes

      @@mathiast0466 Sådan min skjald, vi starter med at indtage skåne og invadere domkirken i Lund. Derefter kan vi gå nordpå og tage Stockholm, fordi Sverige altid er neutrale og ikke vil slås med nogen (anden verdenskrig). Og som Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg's bedstefar sagde engang, Norge: "they have no defense and all the oil", hvilket vil gøre dem lette at indtage efter vi har taget Sverige. Dog ville de kunne have sluttet sig til os inden da, på grund af Danmark og Norges tidligere alliancer mod Sverige som under "den store nordiske krig", så vi ville kunne invadere Sverige fra to fronter som én stor Dansk-Norsk hær.
      Jeg er klar hvis du er,

      Hvis vi samler alle vores styrker kan dette lykkes.

      Well more like an asshole, he used the mediterranean idea of "the people follow the king" and declared everyone christian to cement his own rule (one god, one king, one rule) little did the southern europeans know that Norse society didn't work like that, most people continued worshipping the old gods all over Scandinavia, regardless of what a king might've believed in.
      He wasn't a bigger badass than any other Scandinavian at the time, except for his son maybe, Svend Tveskæg now that guy was a legit badass, conquered all of England and left london in the hands of the former king of england (now king of london) until the city broke because of the constant siege, Canute the great would never have been king of the north sea empire without his father Svend Tveskæg.
