@@MPS2627 ”My history” - what does that mean? “Black” as if from Africa? If that’s what you are on about, you are wrong. Scandinavia has been populated since the icecap withdrew, and the population can be followed like pearls on a string from back then until today. Not only do DNA tests form ancient skeletons from oak coffins or burial mounds dating back to Bronze Age, through Iron Age and during Viking Age (many still with blond hair in the graves) bog bodies, braid offerings show who they were (and still is), but also writings dating back to ancient Rome describing the Scandinavians in details; long before the Viking Age even started. Then there are all the descriptions during Viking Age, also lots of writings about psychical appearance. Also all the statues; dating back to Scandinavian Bronze Age - that’s 3700 years ago - and up until today, and later, old paintings. There is not any signs of Africans - or other cultures besides the Scandinavian - anywhere. I would like to know what you are on about.

@@MPS2627 So, you are ignoring evidence. Perhaps you can tell me when Europeans shifted colour from black to white, did that happen overnight….. ??? When, and how and why??? "Bro all I do is research" that is a very big lie because if it wasn’t, you would know history. Perhaps you should ask black historians. You seem to have a big problem with your skin colour, perhaps you need some help; one thing you are NOT suffering from, is logic. Perhaps it would help you to start study African history.
I am a direct descendant of Harald Bluetooth via the branches of his children, Sweyn, Gunhild and Thyra. Me and about 100 thousand other people can make the same claim, but it does make history a little more personal. Thank you for sharing this history lesson.
Ty for this video! 🙏 My Family/tribe has this tradition for ancient oral traditions. (One feather can of course turn into 5 chickens, I'm well aware of that). I have been Asatru and Christian my whole life. When i got baptized as baby i got a Mjølner/Thors' Hammer in silver in a silver necklace like a amulet. I have never weared a cross but that amulet and im confirmed and go to church often. I have even baptized some. Just want to add some: The Viking; "Harald Bluetooth" was driven by the wisdom of Odin. He was indeed a manifestation of Odins wisdom. Odin is the only of the Norse Gods who talked about a higher "God" (call it what u want), cause he have seen and knows. Thats why he is the God of wisdom and the king of the Norse Gods. Ty Harald! Our Danish founder. ᛟᛞᛁᚾ ⚔️ ✝️ = ❌ ᛟᛞᛁᚾ 🤝 ✝️ = ✅ - 🚬🗿✌️
Thank you very much for your video! I will be baptized by the name of Harald Bluetooth because he is a Saint in the Orthodox Church aswell. At his lifetime there was no schism between the christians. At that time there was just a united One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church.
I am a descendant of Grom the Old and Harold Bluetooth per Ancestry com., and with advanced DNA and an Earl of Dungannon, County Tyrone, Ireland. Amazing!
I'm enjoying your videos very much. Thank you. I have heard via a few sources now that Bluetooth was so named because of his great love for the blueberry, which of course we know stains the teeth.
0:52 - Wow! I have a bunch of ancestors named Knudt (including a knudt knudtson and - having only ever read it - I was pronouncing it like newt in my head.)
I’m also a decendant of Harald BT. But I live up in the north of sweden. Our familj has probably gone from Nidaros (Trondheim) to Östersund i Sweden and the north.
Great content! Loved it, the history, drawings, background music and your voice. Would love to see you check the historical accuracy of Vinland Saga, a japanese comic that focus on the great Thorfinn Karlsefni.
no a Swedish historian wrote a book about his theory that Harald's grave is in Poland, but the grave is not found, others believe his grave is in Germany and some believe it is in Roskilde or Jelling in Denmark, we really don't know for sure because we don't have any remains or grave with an inscription only a few old tales and nobody know what is false and what is true, maybe one day they will find proof in Poland
As I see a lot of us are descendants of Bluetooth, I am starting to think he is also like Charlemagne, Temujin in the sense, they too had a lot of heirs (I am also descended from them lol). So hello, cousins.
I agree. Ima proud Dane. Be aware of "Odinists". They worship demonic representations and images of the Nordic gods. They are manipulated by the Giants. The Nordic gods stand for all that is good, law and order, while the giants stand for the chaotic and satanic. It is because they have gathered their faith in a toxic place.

Great video . Hallo from a danish history geek . Here is some to add/mention . You see for Harold Bluetoth . Converting was political tool. In the Christian World view . Only god was above the King . Because Gorm and Harold copied Christian european Way of being kong . Their power was absolute . Where former viking kings prove themself with raids or on the battlefield . That was not the case around 965.They were rulers because of their royal blood . Now I mentioned the Christian World view earlier .. Now Harold coud with hid converting to his Christian faith not remove the threat of german invasion . He coud also use the Christian World for ambitions . He coud as Christian King say : I am a Christan King anionted by god . And it is my devine right to rule over Denmark . So converting feel right into Harold’s political plans for Denmark
You are one of the only people I have seen that actually understand why they converted. Most seem to think like it was forced when in actuality they did so for future gains.
Sweyn Skarilsen yes sir . I Can tell you about another example. And thats the great heathern Army in 860’es . When danish vikings atttackd , conquered northern England and establiehed the danelaw . Atfter that many of then settled down there among the Anglo saxons . But they also quikly integrated into English society and married into local families . And being Christian was The most easy Way for then to get accepted by English/Anglo saxon neighbours ...Also many of viking Kings of York also converted to Christianity. And doing that . They had s powerfull ally in the Church and it was much easier way to get their regime accepted local population . So in northern England a an Anglo/danish culture emerged. Many Christians graves has been found with images from norse mythology (like dragons, ravend etc) . So many vikings integrated into society Also after the battle of Eddington in 878 . Where King Alfred the great od Wessex defeated a viking Army under the danish cheiftain Guthrum . Part of peace agreement was , that Guthrum had to convert to Christianity . In return Guthrum woud be given East anglia as kingdom. Guthrum accepted the deal.. He coud carve out out a kingdom for himself . But also being Christian King . He had a powerfull ally in King Alfred and Wessex . And also he was recognized a legimite King by other Christian rulers . So yes many viking leaders Saw a political potential in being Christians ...

14:05 Harald was very smart. That version of Jesus r alot like the event of Odin suffering for Wisdom.
I heard Harold Bluetooth got his name from eating an excessive amount of blueberries, permanently staining his teeth blue
Theres a condition called dentinogenesis imperfecta that can cause blueish teeth naturally. Something to do with the enamel.
Harald was the inventor of Bluetooth wireless tech.
