Half a hear in the high sea in a small boat to get there, half a year to get back.

Punk, metal and rap is all nigger music. European folk or fuck off.

The Gulf Stream is a freeway straight from Spain & Portugal to the Caribbean and back.

Compare to the currents up north.

>>3208194
They were dumb.
Not only they didn't establish anything they also kept it like a secret/forgot about it to the point people centuries later still didn't know about it.

>>3208194
Actually the had a permanent settlement for several decades.

>Compare to the currents up north.
Vikings went to america via the Iceland/Greenland/Newfoundland route, and then back with the gulf stream, apparently that worked well enough for them.

They feared the Skraeling warrior

The Pilgrims in Massachusetts made it pretty fucking clear that trying to colonize anything north of Virginia was a bad idea.

>>3210605
Eurofag here. Is it true the Indians tries to cannibalize the Pilgrims?

Like rap is "complicated"

They were weak.

Permanent as in long enough to make a historical impact.

>>3211984
Scientific consensus is that a climate change to colder temperatures changed living conditions on Greenland and ended the Viking colony there.

>he need subtitles for music

Vikings were literally bandits who were looking for gold and women to rape

Would such a group of criminally minded individuals even have the bare IQ to establish a colony with long term, not short term goals?

Only reason they settled Iceland was because it was a nice place to rape Irish women behind their wives backs

>>3212155
Why do people bash nords?

>>3208194
The fuck could they do in Vinland anyway, raping some indians and pillaging their tiny ass villages without anything even modestly resembling an advanced civilization in the nearby area, yeah of course that doesn't look as a feasible prospect to me either

Am I the only one who thought "wow, Jason Unruhe switched his LARPing" at first?

>>3212253
Sounds comfy senpai

>>3211866
No, but they didn't like them right on their coast.

>Strapped shield
>Horned helmet
disgusting

>>3212253
Export timber. Literally what they did in vinland.

>>3212155
hearty laugh

>>3212253
Viking is not a raider exclusively. It is a broad term which includes all people who traveled. Most of them were not raiders, they were farmers looking for better land and climate.

>>3208695
But they didn't, Adam of Bremen knew about it, but people thought it was just some cold islands with a few heathens

>>3212599
Yeah, no. You not gonna cross the North Atlantic in an open sailing boat just to get some timber.

>>3212176
Autists usually, just go to Dublin or any other place that had a lot of Viking activity, it's all »we wuz vikangz»

>>3215106
woah that's even worse

>>3212599
They never even got there in the first place, it's well known you couldn't even sail from Sicily to Sardinia so trans-Atlantic is fanciful
