I appreciate non dubbed documentaries. I'm used to subtitles and it allows me to listen to the sounds of other languages. Plus it's super useful for the hearing impaired. In my country we don't dub at all. It might be a matter of national preference, but maybe that's why learning new languages is easy enough for us.
I agree that a more accurate title would be "How and Why the Vikings Became Christians." I didn't find out how they invaded Paris or what their last journey was. The Christianization of the Vikings was the most interesting part of this. I hadn't considered pragmatic reasons, that some countries and kings would forbid trade with pagans, so the Vikings would learn the lingo and make some jewelry and voila! In another documentary, Viking Chieftain Ragnar Lodbrok is mentioned as successfully invading Paris in either the late 800's or early 900's. He is not mentioned here, unless Rollo and Ragnar were the same person. But then, this documentary is not about how the Vikings invaded Paris. Thank you for not dubbing, and for having music that is only semi-intrusive.
According to one of the sagas the Vikings entered the Mediterranean Sea with view to sack Rome but mistook a smaller city to the north called Luna for Rome and then ,by means of a deception,managed to take that city when the Viking chief pretended to convert to Christianity.The Norman descendants of the Vikings actually sacked Rome a few hundred years later and took pope captive and they established a powerful kingdom in Sicily and southern Italy -quite a number of the southern Italian aristocracy including the former queen Paola of Belgium claim descent from these Normans -she's from the family of Ruffo meaning "Red" and the word is related to "William Rufus" who was the second Norman king of England.
Well, you have to sit this one out then, if your family members were in this over 1000 years ago. Amazing you are actually able to know which member fought after more than 1000 years. How were you able to find that one out. Wow.
@@SKILLIUSCAESAR Seriously, I had no idea, so is that the appeal? I guess it would be, I never thought of that, wow. That makes total sense...I mean I have zero ancestors or DNA in those groups, I just find different cultures interesting.
The Vikings never went away. After the pillaging of Europe. During the last 600 years, the plundering of the Americas, Africa, India, China shows the Viking era never ending.
People only do things because they can. From the beginning of Recorded Time. in Mesopotamia, Two Brothers split & made War over the Fathers Kingdom, they weakened each other and when they were at their Weakest, the Sea People showed up and not only Toppled them but all their Neighbors. The Romans in Britannia(& Europe) The Vikings. The Europeans in the New World. The Sea People always showed up when they were at their weakest.
Can we get some sources on this lady saying that women weren't oppressed under vikings? Like literally there's nothing to indicate or anyway for her to know that... since they had no writing or historical documents to know how women were treated
King Olaf of Sweden killed lots people because they wouldn't convert to Christianity, he got away with it. He then caused a viking war because he hit his wife. Pretty conclusive.
There's literally numerous pieces of documentation of the gender roles and rights women did/did not have and the clan politics/policies/laws. You do know people can read their runes, right? Many other cultures interacted with the vikings and wrote their own reports of what they witnessed. 2 minutes on Google would've given you multiple pieces of Information and where they learned it from.
So it turns out I'm related to the Northmen of the Kingdom of the Isles and Ivar is one of my ancestors. Pretty interesting reading about my Scottish heritage. Clan Macaulay.
It's very hard for someone in my state to be reading subtitles. I love the channel and information but if you can go through the trouble of writing subtitles I would hope you could have someone translate. Unfortunately half way through the video I had to turn it off, my mental situation detracts from me reading and paying attention to subtitles which is a shame because this documentary really caught my interest from the start. Otherwise great channel. That's just how subtitles affect me. Thank you.
Excellent presentation! I especially like the idea and depiction of the Christianization process. Too often its told in a 1 sided context or the other, when it was multiple reasons and contexts being played out simultaneously. Rises and falls of popularity ending in the eventual Catholicism. Love it, thanks

I wish they had voice over because I can't watch i can only listen.
If you want to keep the subscribers you already have please don't change the narrator
Pernilla is perfect for this.
Your viewers deserve no less.

Good one
This is particularly special to me because I have ancestors on both sides of this historical conflict.
Very cool. Enjoy your heritage. 😊

The world all needs a DNA test, they would find to be on Both sides of many conflicts.
@@dr.barrycohn5461 these comment sections are always filled w ancestors lol. Viking and Tudor content especially

If u want to attract more viewers- and subscribers seek a better narrator because this content deserves it.
Agreed
That narrator is baked into the cake. He didn't select her, it's integral to the original documentary.
I just wish it was dubbed. I get so excited then half the video’s in french, in this episode more like 75%
These are old recycled documentaries, this channel didn't create this content.

Change the title to the Christianisation of the Vikings
Maybe the French could have Viking
Where do I buy that Camelot shirt ? :D

So you want them to change their platform and make changes for “your special needs”? Typical generation z...
What an odd tangent on general European dynastic politics towards the end. Also, I can't help but think the makers are fans of the Vikings TV Series.

Love it, thanks
Love the video hate the Christian propaganda
You sound ignorant.
Where did you see the "propaganda"..?
At least 90% of all in this video, is simply historical fact.
Seriously
The stupid subtitle ruin it
