A Thing Of Vikings Chapter 7: A-Viking

Chapter 7: A-Viking
Burh— Old English fortified settlement or fortification, as a response to the threat of Viking raids of the 8th to 11th centuries.  Conceived of as a network of forts containing detachments of local defense militia and roads (known as herepaths) connecting them, they were intended to act as a place to shelter the populace against Viking attack, as well as allowing the English forces to concentrate quickly in the event of a raid or invasion.  Until the 1040s, and the domestication of dragons by the Norse, the burh and herepath system was notably effective in repulsing Viking raids.

“Winter in Berk lasts most of the year. It hangs on with both hands and won’t let go. And the only real comforts against the cold are those you keep close to your heart.”

I just want you guys to know that I do my best to read every tag and reply that you leave on your reblogs, and that they all mean the world to me. Someone wrote ‘beautiful gifs op!’ in their tags and I nearly cried! I think I’m safe to speak for all content creators when I say that even those tiny messages that you might not expect the original poster to read can make all the difference in the world, because they definitely do for me!
