      When we are done with the Viking age, and then the Norman Conquest, we should follow the Normans to Italy while interjecting stories about the in fighting in France and Frisia and Scandinavia, perhaps some on the formation of Germany, and then on to the Crusades. You should do a whole playlist covering everything, from the first call to arms and the people's crusade to the fateful Friday the 13th that saw the Templars axed. The politics of the Crusades on all sides (there are at least three Christian sides and three Muslim sides, and that is not even counting all the city states and their territories and varying allegiances), and the stories that sprang from then are so misunderstood. Would be great seeing it all on your maps and pictures.

      Alexander Ludwig's portrayal of Bjorn is very underrated- notice as Bjorn gets older, he gradually looks, acts, and talks more and more like Ragnar. It's most obvious in the cadence of his speech, he matched Travis Fimmel's inflections more and more as the series goes on, along with facial expressions and hand gestures- always with a little bit of Lagertha in there too. It truly makes them believable as a family unit, and not just actors pretending to be a family.

    "Don't waste your time looking back. You're not going that way."
    Edit: Okay, so after like 2 years and a comment that attempted to explain, I am explaining why I posted this- and yeah, it's pretty dumb. Ragnar Lothbrok said the line to Bjorn in the show "Vikings", when he looked back at his hometown as they were sailing away, I think to go fight someone? I don't remember too well since it's been a couple years. The context is important. To those saying it's short-sighted, you misunderstand the purpose of the line.
    I believe the meaning to be that if you're spending all your time looking back at the past, the places you used to be, etc., you'll miss what's ahead of you. Obviously it doesn't mean to not look back; you're missing the second part of the quote. You aren't going that way. You're going forwards, not backwards, so while it's important to look back every now and then to remember and learn, your focus should be ahead. Never forget where you've been, but don't sit and stare at it, carry it with you to the voyage ahead.
    TLDR; You misunderstood the quote

      Its wild when you think of Viking as a people.

Our bloodlines were mixed with cultures from all over Europe. If your civilization was raided by Vikings, guaranteed children were bore. I'm sure many of the warrior clans were the same, such as the Polynesians and Romans.

    Vikings is hands down the best TV series I've ever seen and I've seen alot,
    The acting is effortlessly done and I hang on every word I just hope the writers end it well in part b s6 it would be a tragically sad story if it ended like game of thrones no effort just neglected

    I still remember when I saw the "Vikings" clip of Ragnar's death the day after the episode first aired. As soon as I saw King Aella in the thumbnail, I knew this was it. We all knew this day would come, but it was still such a shock because until then the entire show revolved around Ragnar. The whole thing gives me a feeling that Vikings and modern day Norse paganism practitioners might see it from an emotional and spiritual standpoint similarly to how Christians feel when they watch Crucifixion reenactments like "The Passion of the Christ" because this is their hero who is being brutally tortured and killed and yet he accepts and embraces his fate.

    Good video, just to add some additional information:
    If you have watched the TV show Vikings, you may have noticed that the director have taken alot of liberties based on historical events, to make it into a watchable TV serie, as a few examples:
    Ragnar Lothbrok may, or may not have been a single person, but various individuals throughout viking history who did various deeds, and the stories ultimately came together forming the legend of Ragnar Lothbrok-- while the individual most likely existed, many of Ragnar's accomplishments or actions might actually have been several individuals throughout viking history, it is also not 100% clear if Ragnar came from what is today Norway, Sweden or Denmark. In the TV series, Rolo/Rolv/Rolf/Gange Rolf is depicted as his brother, but this holds no truth in actual history, while Rolo became duke of Normandie, he and Ragnar lived in two completely different time periods and therefore never met one another.

    Stellar video, thanks for articulating and clearing up what I try to explain to people all the time. You got me with Rollo having no relation to Ragnar, by the way, this is why I am so ashamed of the History Channel. Real history is much better than anything they can come up with.

      @@Barney_rubble983 they also portray Viking culture, clothing, fighting style and fighting gear, as well as international relations in a completely fictional and made up way.
      They portray Norse politics to be autocratic, chaotic and brutal, with the killer of a king becoming king himself, which is utter nonsense. Norse politics were bound by law and there were clear laws of succession, as well as a complex government structure with a council of elders, popular council, king's companions and court magistrates all contributing to decision making and being able to limit the king's powers and enforce the law with the king's absence or death thereof.
      Norse religion is portrayed very inaccurately. The Norse were not jealous for their gods and religion and had no bad thoughts or prejudice for Christians or Christianity. They were not hostile to new religious ideas from Christianity and were not hostile to Christians because of the latter's faith. In fact, the Norse were eager and willing to syncretise Christianity with Norse paganism very early on. They had no problem accepting Christian ideas and the concept of Christ and the trinity, they only had a problem giving up on their old gods and rites.
      The seer is made up completely and has nothing to do with Norse culture. There was such a thing as seers but they were just regular people who could be farmers, warriors, blacksmiths or whatever, who just had additional community duties as ritual performers or omen interpreters based on oral traditions and devination based on properties of physical objects rather than some kind of supernatural prophetic vision. Seers were also mostly women, they were the only people who were literate as they were supposed to be able to write down runes for blessings and curses. All rituals were perfomed in open air without any special buildings designated as temples. Human sacrifices are unknown in Germanic folk religion.
      Their clothing is portrayed all wrong. They all wore linen or wool shirts or tunics coloured in bright vivid colours with complex and intricate textures and patterns, a belt, linen trousers and shoes. Tatoos were unknown to the Norse and they did no shave their hair or kept it short. They certainly did not look like goth teens, metalheads or bikers.
      They fought with helmets and chainmail armour, always used a shield and spear and used a slashing knife or axe as a sidearm only. Swords were very rarely used and they were mostly wielded by policing militia forces at home rather than on the battlefield, and by the king's companions as ceremonial gear and a status symbol.
      They also did not fight in a shieldwall line, but in smaller disorderly formation groups scattered over a large area, since the Norse preferred individual fighting rather than a large group effort in battle. They would draw enemy warriors by using shock tactics into single battle.
      Shieldmaidens were not warriors but only accompanied the warriors in their journeys. They were responsible for logistics and caring for the wounded. There are no sources that claim shieldmaidens fought alongside men. Fighting was most likely solely done by men.
      International relations are all wrong. The Norse had a network of relations throughout Europe even before raiding began, and they had trade posts throughout the continent and the British Isles centuries before the first raid on Lindisfarne. They used to negotiate as much as they used to fight if not even more so, and they tried to excert tribute before any fighting even occured as a warning, and not after.
