because he couldn't. the vikings could only fight unarmed, undefending coastal towns. Native Americans were nomadic and were very mobile fighting force. if vikings tried, they'd get slaughtered on land they didn't know. They didn't even try, because it would've been suicide.

The north american settlements were never permanent. They did visit them for hundreds of years. To harvest timber and other items for the Greenland settlements.

when greenland got too cold. the vikings abandoned it. even though they knew about the inuits and how they survived in greenland. they thought the Skraelings and their way of life was beneath them. So they fucked off back to Iceland.

Which put an end to Vinland.

If they had actually settled for good. The Greenland Vikings could have gone to Vinland. Then the English and french explorers would have come across a Scandinavian nation in North America.

It's because his journey to America is irrelevant and of no consequence to human history. I mean it's notable. Sure. But it could have not happened and we'd still be at this point today.
