    Our last few videos have been quite popular, so in this video getting a budget we have improved:
    - Map (used a more detailed map of the British Isles)
    - Corrected the locations and shape of the rivers on our main map
    - Added musical accompaniment to each scene in the script
    Let us know if you like the improvements, we are trying to make the content better

    My English ancestors come from Yorkshire and Suffolk (East Anglia). In doing family history we recently discovered that in both areas our ancestors were originally from Denmark where my dad’s side of the family is from. So, except for a German grandfather and his ancestors the rest of my ancestors have Scandinavian roots. This video explained how this came to be. Thanks.

      A Swede here 🫡
      I lived with my girlfriend a few years ago in Kendal, Cumbria north of England. A gentleman called Scott whose histories of our anscestry influencing England had me shocked. He told me many older folks in the Lake District had a habit in counting in old Swedish up to 10 and switched it up to regular modern English once they arrived to “11” he told me englands and the rest of the British isles had their weekdays named after Swedish gods names 😵 told me englands flag is reversed from denmarks flag and its tribute to Dane law is there to be found whoever want to see it. Shetland, York and even the flag of United Kingdom is perhaps the same tribute but to Norway, like Ukraine he told who are supposed to have been tributing swedens flag this whole time. Even Minnesota in Amerika is telling us Leif Ericsson a Nordic man who actually found the new land before any Portuguese ever did. Lots of runestones in Minnesota tells us this is real. Harald blåtand is what Bluetooth and its symbol originate from. Shetland is the hardest accent for uk to understand and it’s because its source. Many English men are aware of the southern as the northern culture been interfering them and today I know many Brit’s feel a bit lost of identification. Don’t be:
      You are Scandinavian families to us and never let anyone take it away from you as me myself and my likes. We are pretty much the same and mostly I would reckon the Italian style of manners is not so fully engulfed quite as the Nordic side of its identification on the British isles

    The Viking invasion of Wessex and Mercia could not have long been maintained in the long run. They were a powerful army, but they had no longterm strategy of consolidating power over those territories, nor to make a permanent occupation for their landsmen. Alfred knew that they would soon start losing their grip over time, and then the Saxons would have a fighting chance. Still there were some close scrapes. Taking the fight to the Vikings ensured that Alfred would be left standing as the most powerful lord on the island, with a better chance of reorganising and uniting territories after the fighting was done,

      @@steveshute8359 Except that no, the Normans were ceded the region of Normandy in 911 as vassals in order to protect France from Viking attacks. They kept the Vikings at bay. Saying "Normandy means land of Norsemen aka Vikings" would be like saying "New England means new land of the English, therefore it was the English who fought on Britain's side in WWI." The Battle of Hastings occurred 155 years after one faction of Norsemen took over Normandy, mixed in with the local population, married into existing nobility on either side of the Channel, and then played power politics based on those family connections. The invading Normans added thousands of French words to the lexicon - something the Vikings would never have done. Finally, there's a conflation here of "Viking" with "Norsemen." Viking wasn't just an appellation for Northern European raiders - it was also a verb. "Viking" was something you went and did. The common folk of Denmark and Norway were largely NOT Vikings - you needed assets for the training, boat-building, stocking up of stores, and buying/building weapons. Yes, the Norman rulers came from the class who were initially well-off enough to go viking - but that didn't mean every Norman (or even any Norman) by 1055 would have considered themselves "Vikings."

    "æθəlflæd"; the last syllable sounds closer to a short "e," not a long "a". Many historians believe that Æthelflaed became the de facto ruler of Mercia long before her official ascension in 911 as it appears that Æthelred likely became increasingly ill and incapacitated, likely by 902, and that Æthelflaed both governed Mercia and led military operations alone and in conjunction with Edward from that time. I feel like all accounts that I've read of the Battle of Tettenhall also describe Æthelflaed, not Æthelred, as the leader of the Mercian forces (although he was the ruler of Mercia in name until his death in 911).
    Also, It's not established that Æthelstan was illegitimate; historians disagree. Some think he may have been, but others think that allegations that he was illegitimate were just the product of a succession dispute (these were pretty common allegations to make in such disputes, regardless of their truth).
    We also don't know that King Ælla actually died of a "bloody eagle" or whether that was even a real thing (and not a literary invention by later Christian sources). Anglo-Saxon sources say that he died in the Battle of York.
    You can tell that these AI images are heavily influence by these historical figures' television show casting haha

This means that far back in time, more than a thousand years we share a common female ancestor. I am related to f.ex. operasinger Christina Nilsson from Småland... Probably Canute and Swayn invited also like a thousand vikings from Småland to take part in conquest of England..

    Many Vikings became settlers in England. Some brought their families from Scandinavia while most married local women and raised families. Anglo-Saxon language and Norse language were related as both are Germanic languages. The Vikings picked up Anglo-Saxon language while incorporating Norse loanwords into it. That's why the English language has many loanwords from Norse language.

    Claiming Ragnar Lothbrok as a "mythological figure" compares to saying "The concept of stripes and stars weren't invented till the independence of America"...
    He was LITTERALLY the son of a swedish king named Sigurd Ring of the Svea Riki, and his name "Lothbrok" (meaning wolly pants/wolly cloth) is the base of the name of the danish flag "Dannebrog" (Danirbók = Dane-cloth)
    As for "King" Ælla having been responsible for his execution. Even if Ælla wasn't crowned at the time he executed Ragnar, he later became king, and is remembered as such..
    People of historical influence tend to retain the name they had at their peak.
    Ie "King Henry the 8th was born in the year 1481" in spite of him not becoming king until 1509.
    Now, was Ragnar the guy you see in the Vikings-show? Hardly, most of the feats of the show were achieved by other vikings (like Bjørn Ironside, who faked a baptism to gain access to the church in Pisa, which he raided thinking it was actually Rome)

    I'm surprised you did not run out the timeline to the official end of the Viking Age in 1066. In the end, the Danes did take all of England under King Sven and later King Knud (Canute), and William was the last said to have paid the Danegeld. Incidentally, in 1086, the Danish king called out the Ledings fleet to again attack England, but while it was assembled,, it refused to go. The Danish king realized that he made a huge mistake, and hastily left the fleet. It did not go well for him. The select squad was sent after him, and he was killed in Odense.

    Edward I was born in 1239, roughy 400 years after this video's events. Numerals naming the monarch only came in to effect after the Norman invasion of 1066. There were King Edwards before Edward I, however they were anglo-saxon kings who didn't put numerals after the name, hence why Edward I wasn't the first King Edward of England.

    Are you sure that there was a Saxon king called Edward 1? There was a Norman king of that name hundreds of years later and there was Edward the Confessor but I have never heard of an early Saxon king of that name. I enjoyed the video though and found it informative. Well done for describing Vikings as Scandinavian pirates - they get too friendly treatment by those who consider them romantic.

    If I could learn more about one lost period in time it would be post-Rome Britain or pre-Rome Scandinavia. Mainly for the same reason, their satellite cultures tended to be syncretic and I wish to know what they were like before contact with any culture known to ‘the eyes of the world’
