The bog bodies are NOT from the Viking age. They are from the Bronze age, so 3-4,000 years older.
(which doesn't make them less fantastic!)
from the Germanic iron age
The oldest is actually the Danish "Koelbjerg Man" which dates back to 8,000 BC. But the really well-preserved ones goes back to Germanic Iron Age (500 BC - 800 AD).
It was beautiful to see the Queen give the throne to our new King…. And I cried when see stood up and gave him the chair and Said Long live the King…… Holy S… I cried…
All in all, a beautiful day 🙏
Front row underneath the balcony. 5 hours, pretty cold.
But this was a piece of history happening, wouldn't miss it.
I spent 5 minutes watching DR online. my reason was also history. If not I wouldn't have watched. lol (I am a dane too and I have even done electrical work in Frederik and Marys private residence, I am just not a royalist.... :D)
38:16 At this moment the now abdicated Queen loudly said: "God save the King" and acknowledged her son, and then left the room! The first monarch to abdicate in over 1000 years of Danish history!
I live in Odense and went to Copenhagen and joined the crowd when kronprins Frederik became our King 🇩🇰
Great video Dar! When I was young the only things I knew about Denmark was Vikings and Hans Christian Andersen stories! It is a very old and very traditional country with many unique qualities and beauty! An extraordinary long history! My own niece is half Danish, half Australian, she canmot watch Vikings it's too brutal and confrionting - fascinating! We love our Australian Queen Mary, she is from Hobart the same as me! Best wishes to the new King Frederik and Queen Consort Mary! 👑🙋💕
Thank you for giving us Danes the gift that Queen Mary is. I love her to bits ❤. She brought love to our King Frederik and made his ship sail into a more calm and safe haven.
@@j.d.445 👍❤️
From watching UA-cam I've learnt why the Norwegian Vikings were so intent on attacking monasteries. They were angry with their ruler who wanted to force them to convert to Catholicism. They wanted to show up the christian god as weak and unable to defend himself. They didn't understand that Jesus Christ willingly sacrificed himself for humanity. But I can certainly understand that anger.
Frederick and Mary love story is like a real-life fairy tale. With a Crown Prince marrying a common, average Aussie lady. Everybody in both Denmark and Australia were glued to their tvs to watch them get married in 2004. He was so happy that he cried. The Danes love Mary and we love Frederick. We adopted him as an Honorary Aussie. They love to come back to Australia for Christmas with her family in Tassie (Tasmania) and have a nice normal holiday. They don't really need an security personnel in Australia. So they're usually photographed out enjoying themselves like anyone else. If someone did try harassing them they'd have to deal with the Aussie public.
Yes, we love them! Prince Frederik fully embraced Australia, and particularly the relaxed family lifestyle in Tasmania! 🤗 My niece's father is also Danish, the more civilised Vikings! 😄
Well... It wasn't all about anger.
Christian monestaries contained various items that were either gilded, or made entirely out of gold. Many of these items were set with presicous stones.
In short, the monasteries contained treasure and prospective slaves in the form of monks and nuns, and most importantly; they weren't guarded.
Christians in that period simply assumed that monestaries would be left alone, because that was the norm in warfare between christian rulers, which by the start of the viking age was all they knew.
But, I will grant you that there was a degree of frustration with the christian missionaries that kept showing up.
There still is to this day to be honest.
Today, though, we simply ignore missionaries when they try to stop us in the street, we don't show up at their places of worship to rob and enslave them.
So.. Progress, I guess?
Thanks Australia, we owe you.
But don't you EVER again call Mary "average" again. She's second to NONE!
Peace and love
Nonsense, The Vikings plundered the monasteries because they had a lot of wealth for the taking and no protection! The Danes had to sail longer than any Norwegian Vikings, just to find barren lands on Iceland and Greenland. The Danes attacked and conquered England! Danish Kings also became Kings over England, Norway, southern Sweden, northern Germany and Denmark, on the highest points of their Power! Canute the Great was the Greatest Viking King ever!
the museum you mentioned is in Roskilde, Denmark, its called "vikingeskibsmuseet" where you can see the ships they used during that time :))... also.. Long Live The King Frederik X and Queen Consort Mary.
the new royal powercouple of the world❤🤍❤🤍 they are both amazing!!
You are lucky to have our Mary, noone is more grounded than a Tasmanian! 😁
we're not lucky. she chose to be with frederik and take her life to denmark. it wasnt luck lol. she not yours, she belongs to denmark now and will be here till the end of her days :))@@jenniferharrison8915
In Denmark, we don’t use the phrase “consort Queen”. Her proper title is Her Majesty, Queen Mary of Denmark, Countess of Monpezat.
i engelsk talende lande hedder “Queen-cosort”/dronninge-gemalinde. Men det er nemmer bare at sige dronning, men dronning Mary er dronninggemalinde
Fun fact: Queen Margrethe has over the years told all, that she would never abdicere, she would stay to her death. It came as a big chock to the danish people when she proclaimed in her New Year speach, that she would step back and give the throne to Frederik. She is stepping back because of bad health.
The story about Knud and the waves is the opposite. Courtiers were trying to flatter him, and the "attempt" to stop the waves was his way to illustrate that he was indeed not almighty.
please watch the film "a royal affair"this is what happened to Struense as he was a real hero - it is an almost oscar winning film or actually winning film and will teach you about everything, it is a film that you really do need to see. Mads MIkelsen in th role of Struence is a legend in this film
Did you know that Queen Mary of Denmark is from Australia? She is originally from Tasmania
Yes, Hobart, Tasmania - the same as me! 💕🙋
@@jenniferharrison8915 Long live King Frederik the tenth and Queen Mary!
@@Mike-zx1kx Yes, long live these really authentic people who are using their influence to promote what is altruistic, vital and enduring in the world! 👍🙋
My childhood friend was actually born Oldenburg, which is 1 of the names popping up from way back. He has since taken on his wife's name & will no longer carry on the legacy of Oldenburg. Besides that there was a lot of focus on kings, recent study's & exploration seems to show that Queen Thyra Dannebod reigning around 935-950 & the mother of Harald Bluetooth actually had more power & influence than we initially thought from history. All the best from Denmark....
An Aussie is Queen of Denmark!!!!
Yeah, they sneak in everywhere 😉
🇩🇰❤️ As a Dane, I can tell you, she isn't, not really, Queen Mary became a Danish citizen from the moment she said, 'I do'
Queen Mary changed her faith and has given up the right to custody of the children, should they ever divorce.
(as do all men/women who marry into any Royal family)
- and if you ever watch an interview with her, you can hear Queen Mary saying, how Danish she feels, herself,
..despite being born into a Scottish/Australien family.
0f course, Queen Mary is proud of her heritage, as she should be,
- but she is completely integrated and we love & admire her for that! ❤🇩🇰
@@ZandainHear, hear 👍🇩🇰❤️
Mary isn't the queen-consort, she's the queen
Both are correct.
@@Vlad-sj5yw no! when Prince Henri Montpezat was married to Queen Margrethe II, if the Queen had died Henri would not be the king, because he was only consort, if Frederik X dies, Mary will be Queen and ruler of Denmark.
@@Flum666 What makes you think that? Crown Prince Christian is the next in line. But let's say that was the case, she'd go from what the English speaking people would call Queen Consort to Queen Regent exactly for that distinction.
Be aware that there's a difference in British and Danish here. "Consort" is not used for Mary in Denmark but she is per definition Queen Consort for a British person. A Queen that is the wife of a King but not a regent.
"A queen consort is the wife of a reigning king, and usually shares her spouse's social rank and status. [...] she does not formally share the king's political and military powers, unless on occasion acting as regent.[1][2]" - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen_consort
@@Vlad-sj5yw roughly 1/3 of english is danish or old norse, it's you guys who don't understand the word or usage of consort
@@Flum666 she will not, just as Queen Ingrid didn’t when Queen Margrete’s father King Fredrik IX died.
Queen Ingrid became the “Queen mother” until her death as her daughter ruled as Queen (just as the late Queen Elisabeth’s mother didn’t rule in England after her husband died), and Ingrid was of royal decent by birth so in theory “higher”.
In our country you cannot rule if you are not born into the royal bloodline, CP Christian will take over should anything happen to his father.
This was also all covered (needlessly so bc all danes know) during the full days press coverage as Fredrik became king.
A queen mother has been known to rule on behalf of her minor son previously in Denmark, but Christian is not a minor. And as Mary has no birth right to the trone, she will step to the side if Fredrik doesn’t out live her.
So strange for me….I am Danish, born in Denmark of Danish parents, but brought to Australia at age 6. So, now, I am finding out about my country from an American! Lol The world is a strange place. But stranger is that I moved to Australia, and Queen Mary is Australian….she moves from Australia to Denmark. I lost my Danish language when I moved to Australia, Mary moved to Denmark and learned the language I lost.
We were all out there. 🤓
Vikings is a historical drama television series created and written by Michael Hirst for the History channel, a Canadian network.(copy pasted) So not so much hollywood. can´t imagine what it would look like if they made it 😅Also about the swedes attacking by walking over the ice.
In Denmark, if the sea between Denmark and Sweden, the Öresund Strait, freezes over, and a Swede crosses the frozen water, Danes are allowed to beat him with a stick. This stems from a never-overturned law from the Dano-Swedish War in 1657. Even tho they say we are not allowed anymore 🤣
Thanks for the information! I just figured since it was on TV some additional things were added lol
@@darthetraveler I did add abit more about the swedes attacking over the ice 😂
@@darthetraveler they do add abit. but history channel tend to stay more true to what happend 😄
There IS too much hollywood about that (netflix) TV series. Even people's clothing is completely out of the woods.
Hi Dar! I'm a Dane, and appreciate your reactions. I chose to view the coronation day in the comfort of my home, as it was freezing cold outside, and too crowded for my taste (300,000 ppl).
─ Mostly the history given in the video is the official narrative, so should be taken with a grain of salt...for example the flag falling from heaven in Estonia. Even a patriot like me don't buy that.
It also doesn't cover any negative aspects of how the monarchs behaved, for instance turning the blind eye to slave trade and colonizations (West Indies).
All the best!
300.000 were on the streets, January 14th, 2024 to the announcement of the new king, so 5% of the Danish population, or 1 in 20.
And the rest of us, 5.5 million, were watching the events unfold live on tv from the comfort of our living rooms and couches.
2024, not 2023. 😊
@@Lyspunkt67 Corrected, Thx.
Akyhne: I was watching from home all day long. So were millions of Danes.
seeing all these videos, makes me a proud dane, for how small we are and how big of an impact we had/have on the world.. also i was called Harold bluethooth in highschool because i had a fake tooth that turned slightly blue 😆
The symbolisation of the white gown made me a little happy.
Not only did frederik IX serve in the navy nd get sailors' tattos. He is also well known for refusing to adhere to etiquette during royal banquets, preferring to drink his beer straight from the bottle (a true man of the people), rather than using a fance crystal glass.
Long live the new king, may his reign be long, peaceful, and prosperous.
Actually, DR has released a private video clip of King Frederik the 9th conducting the National Symphony Orchestra. The clip was released with permission of he's grandson.
Search this tittle on UA-cam: "KING FREDERIK IX conducts Wagner // Danish National Symphony Orchestra (LIVE)"
Queen Mary, not Queen Consort.
Fun fact our king is also an elite soldier he is trained as a frogman the danish version of your navy seals 😃
19.00- the austrian flag is actually older- and has been used continously since then
the danish flag had a minor pause- i think.
The austrian people do not mind that we in denmark are so busi telling we are having the oldest..
Queen Margrethe the second was the longest reigning monarch in Denmark.
Yep Dar. The Danish flag, The Dannebrog, are the oldest national flag in continued use. Fell from the sky in 1219 thus now, in 2024, 805 years in unbroken use by Danes. Many nations decided to use the cross and add their own colours but very symptomatic for our relationship in the Nordics not one of those adopting this flag code use the same dimensions, so although Denmark, Faroe Islands, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Iceland and some regions in same region use that "master" as well, none of them have exactly same dimensions.We are much alike buuuut still some differences.
Both of Mary's parents are Scottish which has made Scotland also be on the other end of joy.
Incorrect! They are all Tasmanian, Australian citizens and her mother is no longer living! Mary has given up her Australian nationality for Denmark as required by royal law! They only have relatives in Scotland! 🤨
@@jenniferharrison8915 All whites are ultimately Europeans and she is and will be of Scottish blood. Her father wore a kilt at the royal wedding.
@@alvinmjensen An Australian is an Australian, we are multicultural, unique, free and independent! I wear a kilt at all our Scottish festivals for my Scottish ancestors, so what, he didn't have a Royal or Military outfit! Scots are not considered "white" either, I am Scots, Celt, Pict, Irish Viking, French, Spanish, West Indian, English, Tasmanian, etc!
@@jenniferharrison8915kinda incorrect aswell. Both of her parents were born in Scotland and mobed to Australia.
@@jenniferharrison8915actually her parents emigrated from Scotland to Tasmania…at King Frederik’s and Queen Mary’s wedding in 2004 her father in his speech as the father of the bride made a very humorous joke about how Mary of the Scottish clan Donaldson had been captured by a descendant of the fierce Vikings. 😂
There is a movie about the romance between the crazy King Christian VII's wife and his doctor that I recommend if that interests you? The film is called A Royal Affair.
In Denmark we had kings and queens since 400 AC.
The bogs bodys are not Human Sacrifices from the viking era, but the bronze and iron age in Denmark, that makes them older than the vikings. I’m a dane this is the correct story of the bogs bodies.
Maybe you could eventually react to "Hele Danmark fejrer kronprinsen", to show the attitude of the Danes towards our beautiful royal family.
all the Kings were family incl, those not called Frederik or Christian -starting with the father of Gorm the old -the Kings before hat we don't know if they were part of the line , so they were not really elected but in the beginning the people should accept the King -all the different Kings who only ruled a short time was usually killed by family members who then took the throne
Længe leve vores konge!
Længe leve kongeriget! 🇩🇰🇫🇴🇬🇱
yea thats us
Thanks Dar, as a Dane it was interesting to see your reactions and reflections. Wierd place, eh? 😀
well that was interesting whom would hasve thought that about Blue tooth
the faroe islands were not uninhabitated.. english and irish monks lived there.. iceland, on the other hand were uninhabitated.
Come to Denmark bro
#41:45 - "We just have Presidents"
The problem with Presidents is that they are elected by the people. And we all know how stupid most people are.
You is so hige😂
Okay, so a lot of the stuff that was said in the video you watched is absolute bollocks.
The video you watched is filled with mistakes ...
