Vikings are fucking brutal as fuck.
vikangz are just Nordic versions of the noble savage myth. Romanticizing norse society during the Viking age and treating Marauding raiders (and just plain old traders in all fairness) as some sort of noble warriors is not different than romanticizing Amerindian society and Amerindian raiders.
