Kings and Generals' historical animated documentary series continues with a video on the Danelaw Vikings, focusing on how the Norse invaders built and defended their settlements in England after the conquest by the Great Heathen Army. The video focuses on the daily life of the Norse and the fortifications of York and Five Boroughs and how they used even the old Roman fortifications to defend against the Anglo-Saxon counter attacks.

Something about killers and their doctrine and the way they want to go to heaven... This is probably one of the best videos that we have ever made and the amount of work put into the 3d animation is incredible. Consider liking and sharing the video, if you think so, too :-) The new battle episode will come either on Tuesday or Thursday.
Damn you guys really did outdone yourself with this one. The animation, narration. Wow just perfection! *chef kiss intensifies*
Please make video on *Indus Valley Civilization*
Indeed!
The art is biutiful
Video very informative
Can you pleas make a video about western slavs
I really liked your video and I look forward to the next.
Btw Derby and Derbyshire are both pronounced with a hard AR rather rather than the ER sound.
Wow look at the fancy sophisticated animations. Great job guys! Love viking history!
I didn't notice that
Wow, time traveler! Teach us your ways 😁
@@akealalawad8898 cus hes a member and probably got early access
@@verySharkey oww, never thought of that. Thanks man, gave you a like for that.
@@vanharoldgonzales5361 If one wishes to traverse the boundary of time as I have done, one must relinquish ownership of all worldly possessions. Or pay $5 monthly, whichever is more convenient.
I'm always impressed how fucking long these Roman buildings were standing, and probably would have standed for even longer if other rulers or people didn't use the martial to build new stuff. The Romans left like half a millenium ago, but their stuff is still there. I would really like to know what scandis at that time thought about the Romans. what did they know about them? The ones who settled in eastern europe knew them for sure, but what about those of the north sea?
Hardrada knew the Byzantines well, but he still couldn't conquer England!
@@SamuelHallEngland you have to thank scandinavian bath time for that
There are parts of Roman Buildings still standing or incorporated into newer structures in England, in Rome there are still buildings in use like the Pantheon - definitely worth a visit. My home City of Chester has many of it's Medieval walls built on solid Roman layers of stone, that are still where the XXth legion put them
@Fabrizzio Perfetti Not anymore you don't.
@ReaperCH90
The Vikings probably knew of the Romans through being exposed to Catholicism and their historical chronicles. Regardless, Scandinavian tribes had been in contact with Rome since the early days of the Roman republic.
"During Viking rule, York is described as a large compost heap"
Yup, that's York alright
Hey, Jovick is a really nice place, plus if you are into drinking theres a bar called Valhalla. Its awesome
@@andrew199315 thors during Christmas time is great too
New York isn't a much better compost heap either, haha.
"York: At least it's not Hull."
@@1stVARifleman its a newer compost heap so the smell is worse
How is this free?! The quality is so good! Deserves more views and subscribers!
This video is a real time machine and a true masterpiece !
Imagine the same 3D animations but for Constantinople !!!
Make Constantinople great again
İSTANBUL
Not for much longer
@@musaikbaltemel9128 shut up
I'm definitely a fan of this new direction their animation is going
Wow!! The Animation in this is truly amazing! A real leap forward in independent historical documentaries.
Really appreciate the time and effort that goes into these videos. So Thank You!
GREAT THEATER of LEARNING
A college professor of Archeology and Ancient History here. You do an excellent job of fact and presentation.
For the past 20 years, I have been studying the Viking trade network in the central part of the US, from 600 ad to 1300 ad. Extremely little information for their activities in America, but most interesting.
Thank you for your accuracy.
V-viking trade network in the central part of the US!?
Only Knew they were for a while in Newfoundland, but never heard them reaching the midwest
Newfoundland, Canada, 'L'Anse aux Meadows' is the one and only site with archaeological evidence of Norse people settling the Americas in the dark/medieval age, ever. This site also provides evidence that the colony lasted between 3 - 10 years before it failed. It's definitely not impossible that goods from this colony wound up in the Inuit trade network and found their way across the US, but to say that their Norse makers followed them and actually made it more than a couple miles inland, on foot, into the mainland of North America? Not at all probable or plausible considering the material evidence provided by archaeologists and literary evidence by the Saga of Erik the Red.
There are no trade networks going down the central US, this would be a discussion point here in Scandinavia.
f you're really a college professor, I assume you're published? I have access to all journals, please provide your sources and references to your own work.
Besides, 600 AD is the Younger Germanic Iron Age, in fact 550 is the lower bounds for the /Older/ Germanic Iron Age period. The viking age did not continue into the 12th century either, you seem catastrophically misinformed.
Amazing! the art n animation getting better n better 😀
Having grown up in New York I learned about the "Old" five boroughs of York as a kid (who spent much time in the library). This time period in England is easily one of my favorite, so thanks for another great doc.
Oh damn I didn't even think about how New York also has five boroughs. Connections!
yes true
I was astound by the fact you guys made your own animations like this!
Really adds someting extra instead of all the tota war clips I see used on other channels!
Great narrative, good story and easy to follow. Thanks for these amazing videos!
Man, I just have to say keep up the good work. You and your team are doing a fascinating job, really. Your videos have gotten to be extremely immersive and informative, and entertaining to boot. The quality in this video has become a new standard, it's apparent how hard you're working. Thanks a bunch, from USA.

But first, King Harlaus has invited you to another feast!
that's a nice head you have on your shoulders
You guys are Total War level animators at this point, and I love it!
*Norsca intensifies*
My God! Those 3D animations are so beautiful! I literally lost my words!
are they from a game? previous videos have used total war animations.
@Saujana i hope they port some form of viking conquest to bannerlord.
@Saujana You are wrong
@Saujana He mentioned in the reply to the pinned comment that all of their work are in house
Wow you guys uploaded this at the PERFECT moment because I had just started watching The Last Kingdom recently. Good Stuff!
Come on Devin, as an Englishmen you should know how Derby is pronounced.
Must be a reason Offiy D would never make a mistake like that, unless he was playing HoI4 as Belgium again.
I am pretty sure he is not English - I think he is Kiwi. if you go through any videos that involve English place names he gets at least one wrong every video. And often English names. He pronounced them as written, rather than how you are supposed to say them. I am surprised he got Leicester right tbh
@GamorneiOne ever heard of different accents and dialects? There are like 500 different accents in England, one for each city, town, and village. Surely, there's gonna be different ways to pronounce the same name
@GamorneiOne okay, i get it, no need to call people names, yeesh. I understand that you're a little miffed that Devon has mispronounced Derby's name, no need to be so rude
@GamorneiOne to be honest, devin always sucks at pronouncing many names and placenames. most every chinese video that this channel produces always gets at least 1 or 2 or all of the chinese names wrong too(oh im not even referring to the tones, its really about as simple as the pinyin letters they treat as if it were the same as english letters when its not), even though they couldve just put the name on google translate and hit the listen button. they never ever do it or at the very least, some of the later videos, they get some of it alright, but theres always at least one or two wrong. im not sure but maybe devin is from canada? idk
Lets just take a moment to appreciate the haaard work and effort that K & G put into this vid, many many thx, the animations are awesome!
I can't help but flinch every time I hear you say Derby
Name Explain just did a video this week in which he pronounced Derby that way as well, and naturally there were a lot of comments wondering why. I blame american media eroding The English Language.
Was literally going to comment the same lmao
It hurts! And he sounds British too...
@@jonbaxter2254 He is British. That's why he still says "British Isles" like its 1876.
@@WaterShowsProd It's better to take positive action than to throw blame on others. Blame does no good to anyone.
Wow... The animations improved a lot. I have been watching your videos for a long time now, and im very excited to see your videos improving so much. Thanks
Amazing video! Animation was beautiful
Well you know what the Vikings use to sing about York, "if you can raid it there,
you'll raid it anywhere,
it's up to you,
Old York,
Old York!"
Franch Sinatra-Nokia-Bluetooth
This has got to be the best Video on the Vikings settlements...and the animation was Amazing!!
Generals is literally just flexing their graphics quality at this point
Assassin's creed, the game where helmets and armor don't work, and bushes are cloaking technology
sounds like a flawed game.
@Everyday Heroes yeah. It's atmosphere is beautiful but not my cup of tea :)
@Casey McCullen The Templar Knight of Justice pro muslim how?
@Casey McCullen The Templar Knight of Justice the Ezio saga, origins, and odyssey are amazing. I’m enjoying Valhalla so far
@Casey McCullen The Templar Knight of Justice bruh.... basim and hythem were there in the game to give it assassin's creed touch, nothing to do with pro Islam
Scandinavians arrive in Britain: **Hippity-hoppity, this land is now my property**
1066 NOPE
And all of that without applying for pre settle status, Nino or legal papers, just violence 🤔.
This sounds so funny when said in a Scandinavian accent 😂
@@99999Seb99999 I can do that :)
Reparations must be due! I’ll take mine in IKEA vouchers
The soul you put into this... such an excellent video in all aspects
Remember to add this one to the channel’s Vikings playlist! It’s only got 3 videos right, looking pretty barren. I listen to this channel for hours at a time, thank you so much for the great work you do!
Yoooo, this new animation is absolutely amazing
This not being assassins creed sponsored really took me by surprise
wooww the amount of research and animation that were put into making this video is insane! Great job! always a fan of this channel
I love this video and the effort you put into it, hopefully you can make a video like this about the Roman Empire!
Animations are getting better day by day. Keep it up👍
I love the narrator's voice! Has the same effect on me like David Attenborough.... It just wouldn't be the same without him
Definitely agree! He needs to be hired for documentaries!!
He reminds me of Patrick McNee
One of the very few channels on TH-cam I would support !
Me: scrolling TH-cam Home
Kings and Generals: *Posted a video about Danelaw and Viking*
Me: Interesting.
This is my favorite channel by far. I love history and this is a dream come true!!! THANK YOU!!!
So interesting. Thank you for subtitles in every video!
Loving the 3D art. I dig it
@GamorneiOne From what game? Where are you get that?
Wow! The animations are getting really good
I wonder how the ancient scandinavians looked at the Roman ruins, their imposing walls or ruined temples. In Bernard Cornwell's books, the main character Uthred never tires of admiring those ancient buildings and feels diminished when he looks at the imposing ruins of the Roman Empire near the wooden houses and thatched roof and wonders "How did such a people just disappear ? "
they probably felt the same way :D
Cornwell is fantastic.
@@glencrs yes mate!! He is!!!
The Vikings who invaded England were mostly Danish. The Norwegian Viking’s mostly invaded Scotland. The Danes had probably already helped sacked Rome many years before and this elevated their opinion of themselves so they chose to ignore the Romans’ superior buildings. In Bernard Cornwells books about the Britons v Saxons wars, King Arthur often laments that his people (the Britons) had not learned to build like the Romans who he appears to greatly admire. The summary is that superior cultures once defeated (usually by destroying themselves from within) are not necessarily replaced by better cultures and thus humanity regresses backwards. The only exception was the British Empire where Britain mostly ceaded its colonies back to their indigenous peoples or their European creators peacefully with goodwill the exception being N America where the colonists rebelled yet this too would have eventually received the treatment. This lesson should be drummed into all Europeans, Americans, Canadians, Australians and N Zealanders so they stand up and reverse the unchecked immigration of the third world into the great nations their forebears created before we all go the way of Rome and world regresses to savagery once again.
It's great to see this channel getting ever so better.
Please do tell of other viking influences in places like modern day France, Russia, Ireland and Holland. What tales you could tell on this splendid channel.
Leif Erikson, the discoverer of North America, Haralad Hadrada the most awesome Viking ever, and Beowulf.
Russia was basically founded by Vikings you should watch Kings and Generals History of the Rus videos on the subject.
Love the 3D animations. Brings it to life so much more.
How does someone who narrates in an English accent pronounce Derby as "durbee" instead of "darbee"?
@@eliteviktor3 No it doesn't. It must be a robot, there are a few errors in the street names too.
Anyways not everyone can pronounce that.
@@redphoenixplays1351 Darby. Not too hard. In the same way 'clerk' is pronounced 'clark'.
There is a really good Pod cast called the History of English that talks about the changes in pronunciation of words and how Grimms law effected the language. The Colonies in America took some of the pronunciations that were used at the time the first Colonist moved there, before some changes in the way words were pronounced in England. Still changes happening now.
@@paulwood6729 Some people with foreign accents can’t pronounce it.
I am fascinated with the history of Britain/England. Thank you!
What a masterpiece, I see you used the civ 6 theme for Vikings in 7:40 good job lads 😄
I just finished assassin’s creed Valhalla main story mode and I am a history fan so this was a surprise to be sure but a very welcome one thank you for making this content to explain the real history behind a great game
I was born in York, the Yorvik museum really stinks for sure! XD
Some Viking town names in the North-East of England include: Whitby, Beverley, Willerby, Anlaby, Hunmanby, Haxby and Kexby. Try and work out what they mean if you like!
by means town in Danish
Beautiful animations
Love your videos, not only is it unique and very informative with a mass amount of entertainment. But your voice is soothing and just right. I do have a question, aside from what's written in the description about members. Are there benefits that can transfer to the store from being a member? Would love to join and/or buy merch.
The animation is amazing thanks for the videos
Love the animation upgrade
always enjoy your videos , felt that little bit more invested thanks to the feelings of familiarity having worked in york for a few years
This is amazing. Is that Total War: Thrones of Britannia in the background?
What does that game have to do with vikings? They don't even have ship battles
somoke not dope did you take one minute of your time to look the game up? Its LITERALLY a game where you can play as vikings and conquer england. And yes it does have ship battles, look it up man
@@arandomfawn5289 bruh
At least part of the soundtrack is the Viking theme from Civilization VI.
I heard ck2 music
Hell yes!!! I Start every Sunday with K&G!!!!
This video is one of a kind. Animation has definitely gone up in quality with these history videos.
One of the best KnG videos I've ever watch
Wow, this was perfect timing, I just recently became curious about The Danelaw and started looking stuff up.
This is amazing, I have no idea how you obtained so much information, I love following these videos whilst looking on Google Maps to get some reference on the scale. Thank you.
Well, time to load up another game of Crusader Kings. Excellent video
Cambridge wasn't quite founded by the Vikings. It had already existed as a fort used by the Romans right from the first century, and Anglo Saxons had lived there from then up until the Vikings arrived. The Vikings did however greatly build it up into what could be called a town, establishing it's River dock in particular, where under the Anglo Saxons it was only really a small village
Amazing work. The way the vikings made use of Roman ruins has a very post apocalyptic vibe to it. Fallout England.
Live very near York, brilliant watch lads.
I love how you guys are getting more and more specific
That production quality 😲😲😲
Great stuff!
Wow im Dansih and i did not know as much of Danelaw as after watching this dam is great quality of content
The Danes are brothers to the English
@@ryangerrard4048 How so? The Danes raided and invaded Anglo-Saxon England many times throughout history.
@@blackgenetics6206 because they also settled a lot, especially in counties such as Yorkshire , Lincolnshire etc, we have shared history, just as England & America have
@@ryangerrard4048 true enough but I don’t think they properly assimilated with the Anglo-Saxons because Athelred the Unready ordered the St. Brice’s day massacre resulting in thousands of Danes killed, then Sweyn Forkbeard king of Denmark launched another invasion of England.
Sequel documentary on the Norman Colonization go go go :D
The animation makes me feel like watching game of thrones or the vikinga series. Wow!!!!
Thank you , K&G .
Conflict of Nations is awesome! I totally recommend it!
Love the animation! Vikings were great sailors and explorers .
The Saxons be like: "You're trying to steal what I've rightfully stolen."
Lots of people forget that the many of the anglo Saxons were themselves descended from modern-day Denmark through the Jutes
the Jutes and Angles , the Angles came from the southern part of Jutland and into the most Norther part of modern day Germany, the Jutes were in the Northern part of Jutland
I'm American, but I know that Derby is pronounced 'Darby'.
Great video like always
4:20 * ending in the *suffixes* -by and - thorpe.
Not prefixes
Sir please make a video over Anglo-Saxons
thanks for the detail vid def much informative than school books!
I live 30 minutes away from York and can confirm it is still a gaint compost heap
Good video, interesting topic greetings from Ireland
Fantastic animations!!!
How is that every time I start looking for a particular period of history you guys upload a video about that particular topic?
Well he's already done Normandy and Italy and Byzantium
WELL this is something that interests me. Good one K&G
Your videos are insane now!
Great work
good info
Animation is on point
You should do a video on the best place to have a city
Look how high the sea level is in these maps!!! Can I get these maps or some oceanographic evidence for this? I’ve been looking but I can’t find any good sources, it makes sense geologically but I want more
They absolutely were master craftsman especially of sea traveling ships. Thanks Kings
Hello from Viking York 👏
I wish they could make any docu.. On Anglo-Saxons on Britain... Their origin and migration in Britain...
Sidebar : the amount of times I've sought out K & G for some context to an Assassin's Creed adventure - you can't ask for a more concise, wonderfully created and produced, with one of the best narrators.....this should be ON the disc with Valhalla.
Wait. Ubi would go and charge 'Helix points' for it.......but they'd give you juuuuuuust not enough free credits for the first video......so scratch that, carry on K & G ! 👍🍻
Fantastic video!
Assassins Creed: Vahalla comes out, Kings and General comes out with a viking video
I see you K&G working with them algorithms
good work
I’d love a video on the differences between the Danish Vikings that settled England and the Norwegian Vikings that settled parts of Scotland
