Were the Vikings as brutal as history tends to depict them? Famous Vikings like Ivar the Boneless had multiple sides to them and their lives weren’t all killing and raiding.

Ragnar Lothbrok: A Real Viking Hero Whose Life Became Lost to Legend | Ancient Origins

Author’s Note: This is not a myth or religious/spiritual story. It has over time been mythologized. Really the only reason we decided to publish this particular article is because we here absolutely LOVE the History Channel’s show Vikings. Enjoy. https://www.ancient-origins.net/history-famous-people/ragnar-lothbrok-ferocious-viking-hero-became-myth-008177

If you're partial to quaint ghost stories and tales of strange places, highly recommended. Also, Adam Scovell's short film inspired by the locations is lovely:

#a warning to the curious (1972) #i love the christmas ghost story thing #and this one also has the added terror of... norfolk. which. having lived there i can say yes. it's like that. #'normal for norfolk' isn't just a classist and ableist acronym they write on doctors' notes. it's a weird fkn place. #a lot like the south west in that they're two bits of the uk no one goes to without a purpose #but cornwall has more tourism and a more diversified rural economy so it's not quite as entrenched in its own odd history. #for my us/can friends: norwich literally has a norman castle in the middle of the city. they built a mall under it. called it 'castle mall. #used to be a nice ice cream shop there. there's also a pub from... 1248 iirc? the adam and eve. not that great. don't recommend. #anyway. anything outside the tourist drag can get verrry rural. it is danelaw country after all. #so i can absolutely buy vengeful spirits patrolling the bleak and windswept coast. #m.r. james #movies #adam scovell #Youtube

Alfred was an ambitious ruler who defeated the Vikings, promoted education, and sought to provide a better life for his subjects. Never expecting to inherit the crown his early life was focused on scholarly pursuits. During his reign the foundations were laid for a untied England resulting in him being named the first king of the Anglo-Saxons.

cracks me up that. consistently. across almost every verse. sigrid meets her husband for the first time, goes "oh he's pretty. anyway," and proceeds to do something terrible and/or illegal at him.

#true love... #elder scrolls? flings herself at him knives first after killing a dragon. #dragon age? breaks into his house and lies to him about why. #grishaverse? gang-related shakedown. #the danelaw au i haven't written up yet? swings a rake at his head (though in her defense she is dealing with a viking raid) #𝖨𝖭 𝖪𝖠𝖫𝖳𝖤𝖱 𝖶𝖨𝖭𝖳𝖤𝖱𝖭𝖠𝖢𝖧𝖳 ❖ tore skjeggestad.

the fact that a 1100 year old political maneouvre combined with a shallow understanding of genealogy is such a huge part of modern wh1te n4ti0n4list identity politics is both hilarious and frustrating to someone who yknow studied the era

#hey guys Cambridge is right there IS no such thing as Anglo Saxons !! #no one in acedemia has used the term without a huge amount of qualifiers for 30 years at least #sorry to tell you but the English identity was made up to justify reconquering the Danelaw #i REALLY think the commonplace genetic testing and the fundamental misunderstanding of genetic origin it created isnt helping either #sorry to tell you again but Britain has always been a mixing pot :)) #modern genetic study of Britain is something i read about just anyway because the origin of culture and language here is interesting to me #and its deep and rich and full of prehistoric influx from across europe #so yknow #anyway today im mad about this and right wing people who piss themselves about not being Anglo Saxon are pathetic #rory's ramblings

Continental Broad Seax: Designed by Markland Merchants to be a historically accurate broad seax for the serious Viking reenactor – it has a blade of tempered EN45 high carbon steel which is tempered to a 56-58 HRc hardness.

Danelaw Seax: This robust bladed seax is the so-called broken-back style seax. These seaxes have a sharp angled transition between the back section of the blade and the point. This shape makes the spine appear to be broken like a beast with a broken back which is where this evocative blade style gets its name.

Just spent the last hour google-searching about Leicester... for a fic 🫣

#it's not like I could take a train there right #(its a 1 hour trip hehe) #plot twist: couldn't find what I was looking for but I did learn Leicester was danelaw back in 875 #Kyra's random historical facts #that will not be a current tag I'm dumb as shit #kyra's ramblings

Put Solen and Argo into ROAs universe where solen Specifically doesn’t belong what with him being from a gay reincarnation isekai genre originally, however comma I love Aeolia and I love solen and his cringe fail detective duke so like… worth it

God Argo in this setting is so funny cuz he’s one of the most powerful players in the game, not cuz he’s good at fighting and thus can hashtag save the world but cuz he’s just he’s good at math so much

Local man would get slaughtered if he left the safety of the town on his own but basically IS the economy itself yet also Looks like he could throw down and win

#Argo would be a big proponent of union guilds #that being unions for members under large guilds like roundtable and danelaw #rise of Aeolia #please ask me about my guys I’m begging
