Barbarians - The Vikings

They were the dreaded forces on the fringes of civilization, the bloodthirsty warriors who defied the Roman legions and terrorized the people of Europe. They were the Barbarians, and their names still evoke images of cruelty and chaos. But what do we really know of these legendary warriors?

From the frigid North Sea to the Russian steppes, this ambitious series tells the fascinating stories of four of the most fabled groups of fighters in history, tracing 1,000 years of conquest and adventure through inspired scholarship and some of the most extensive reenactments ever filmed.

The Vikings sails with the Norsemen from Arabia to the New World, stopping off for a bit of pillaging along the way.

I would love to show this video to my students because it's fantastic, but the first ad that comes up is highly inappropriate for them. Is there a way to make it stop?!?

@ADude71 Well Finland is at least part of the large scandinavian peninsula called fennoscandia, so the land is connected. But it was still missing the action.

i blame the jew religion for the fault in humanity!

the jew religion needs to be erased from history!

Oh my... maybe do some research before trying to make a documentary next time.

Finland should not be lit up on the map, they have never been either a Vikingnation or part of Scandinavia. Nowdays Denmark on the other hand was indeed a powerful land of the Vikings.

And they are also a Scandinavian nation along with their neighbours: Sweden and Norway.
