They fail to mention their political reasons (Charlemagne's persecutions). Other than that... Dramatic as always on history channel. Thanks for the upload!
in the 8th century just south of Scandinavia, in the Holy Roman Empire, there was a great persecution of pagans. it is my opinion Lindisfarne was not just a plunder raid, but revenge against the abuses of the Roman church! and no doubt Saxon,etc, refugees went far north and told of the holocaust Charlemaigne perpetrated!
Why do Americans tell us about Scandinavian / British history?
