Ragnar? Erik the Red? Haradrade?

Not this shit again. Don't bait that faggot back in here.

>>1907543
Ragnar didn't exist.

>>1907684
A lot of scholars believe he did, although some argue he is the combination of several leaders, or at least he didn't achieve everything that is told about him.

>>1907691
A lot of scholars believe holocaust happened that doesn't fucking mean it's true. Ragnar is a fairy tale like Santa Claus, king Arthur, Hercules or finnish social life.

Let me stop you right there, there is evidence supporting both Ragnar and The Holocaust

ayyy Harald fairhair?

All of this viking bullshit revisionism is done by fat neckbeard atheist nerds. They're like guys who think samurais and katanas are the best thing that ever happened. Thankfully we don't have that many any more but the viking ones are still around.

>>1907810
Ragnar did the holocaust.

>>1907862
exactly friendo, he really showed the world what the white race was about

Weren't the guys that established Danelaw in England pagans?

>>1907968
They were muslims.

FTFY

Rollo harassed and raided France so much that the king of France gave him Normandy under the condition that he converted to Christianity. Some sources say that there were human sacrifices at his funeral.

Nah, can't think of anything.

They took their achievements from the same place christians did: ancient Israel.
Also Rome didn't even reach its full civilisational potential until it became Christian.

Allowing humanities on this board was a mistake.

rome wasn't Christian until the 4th century, and by that time it had enjoyed over 300 years of pax romana

Why was it called Danelaw if they were from Sweden then?

>>1907522
Because history attracts a disproportionate number of retards. This board is visited by some of the most retarded people browsing 4chan.

>>1907862
Absolute madman.

Danes btw came originally from Skåne region in southern sweden. Their invasion to Jutland might even have at least partially triggered the Jutes and Angles migrating to Great Britain.

All Christians (you can probably discuss how devout they were, but they were certainly not strong, independent pagans who didn't need no priest).

>>1907281

So I never visit /his/ but I saw a picture of a longship and I had to check it out, beeing Norwegian and all. If this is the level of discussion you usually have then I suggest this board be terminated.

Have a nice day.

Well to be fair, the Norse in the per-Christan era were not really interested in territorial expansion, other than a bit of dabbling in Ireland and northern Britain. In general, the just wanted to grab some shit and fuck off back home.

Rollo was pagan when he conquered Normandy though, he only converted after the fact. However, he did sacrifice 40 servants to Oðinn when he was on his deathbed.

The Great Heathen Army?
