I've been watching Vikings. Why didn't /int/ tell me that medieval Scandinavia had lesbian queens, Chinese princesses, black guys, armies of shieldmaidens, and Muslim vikings? This seems like important information you never discuss.

praise tengri!

>>70181742

Because it never happened

>>70181742
There were like 10 Muslim Vikings at most, the rest is bullshit
>>
>>70181742

Because we only ever get the fantasy version of medieval Europe, where only white people lived in it. Trading, pilgrimage, missionary missions, and tourism were quite common during the time.

kinda funny about this show that when speaking Old Norse they generally use reconstructed medieval pronunciation but when singing they use modern Icelandic pronunciation

I am sure black vikings happened. They weren't really picky as long as you were able bodied and understood basic commands.

Sure, now get the fuck off fincuck

I am sure gypsies lived in Europe already for quite a while by then.

This is the same channel that made a Mediterranean/Berber man straight up sub Saharan black, what do you expect. American niggers have zero culture and history so they latch onto others
>>
>>70182034
except black people are to be found nowhere near Scandinavia

>>70182075
no the gypsies came to Europe after the period of the show

I am sure you are dumb... You really belive that 1000 years ago when only blondies lived in the norse and nobody ever saw a nigger, the local kings would have allow something like this ? They hated christians so what reason would have made them love niggers ?

I don't remember these being on the show, or the queen being a dyke

Because they weren't christfaggots.
>>
>>70182034
How would vikings even find black people to recruit you moron? It's more likely they picked up some native americans in Vinland than any black people involved
>>
>>70182175
None of the actors speak Icelandic or ON as far as I know

they sing "Það mælti mín móðir" (My mother told me) both in Icelandic and English and verses from Hávamál during [spoiler]Ragnar's funeral[/spoiler] and then switch back to ON using completely different pronunciation
it's pretty funny

This series are for Turks. It looks like they are most popular in Turkey

Even worse
The pronunciation is completely different to the point where they're not really mutually intelligible
It's like they had Italians speak for the Spanish speakers half the time and then the other half they had actual Spaniards

Yes, rich business people interacted with other rich business people.

Only in a few places.

Didn't involve many foreigners.

Only among the nobility and rich people. Do you think some farmer from 13th century Denmark or even 19th century American Midwest has ever traveled far?

Is it any good?

There are no black vikings in the show

Ragnar will be killed by King Aelle. The episode is very sad. The worst thing is that he is tortured before

Because you're american and you learn history with games.

>Only among the nobility and rich people. Do you think some farmer from 13th century Denmark or even 19th century American Midwest has ever traveled far?

ofc not, that's silly, why would you think that? Still nothing I said was incorrect (not that you said it was). I just wanted to point out to the OP that a lot of what we get are false (fairy tale) stories about medieval Europe.
>>
>>70182493
So they already did the great pagan war, with them full-on invading England?

>because they looked exotic
Was that really an argument back then? Do you have any sources to back up the claim that black slaves existed in medieval Northern Europe?
>>
>>70182656
There was never any sizeable population of black people in medieval Europe
they may have existed here and there but in places like Germany, England and Scandinavia you'd most likely go your whole life without seeing one

the idea that there were is modern historical revisionism by american negroes
>>
>>70182675
I don't know, I just saw in the last episode that Ragnar's sons go to England to revenge his death and at the end of the episode, king Aelle is dead by Eagle blood.
>>
>>70182656
Maybe you hear false (fairy tale) stories about medieval Europe by watching Disney movies that bastardize European folklore.
>>
>>70182493
>Spoilers from history that happened a bit over a millenia ago
That old spoiler came a bit late.
>>
>>70182829
>history
Ragnar is about as historical as King Arthur
he probably existed but we have multiple contradictory sources about him so he was more myth than man
>>
real talk /int/: why did they let the christian devils convert all of the vikings into greedy, hyper-violent, choirboy-fucking catholics?
>>
>>70182934
the christians got the kings on board, and then the kings army travelled around the country, threatening pagans with beheadings if they didn't convert

christianity = isis
>>
>>70182776

stop jumping the gun and assuming things go back to /pol/ with that american negro history revisionist boogeyman propaganda. Ofc there weren't a ton of black or asian or mena people but there were some and they did travel and live throughout Europe, so if you're reading a story set in medival europe and you encounter a few minority characters it's not that strange because they certainly existed in real life. Not just all people stayed in one place before air travel was common.

Boating expeditions

>>70183127
>so if you're reading a story set in medival europe and you encounter a few minority characters it's not that strange
depends on the story and how many
again most people would never see a black person (the modern definition) in their lives
moors and near easterners are not black but they were far more common, especially in Iberia

if a story happens in medieval Europe and there's a saracen trader somewhere that's not strange
if a story happens in medieval Europe and there are multiple black people around that's ridiculous
if a story happens in medieval Europe and there are no non whites whatsoever there is nothing unusual about that either and in fact is probably the most likely scenario for most stories

>american negro history revisionist boogeyman propaganda
but that's literally what's happening
remember the hilarious outrage about the witcher games?
>>
>>70182887
True. Legends and sagas
Still, even though he most likely was atleast partially (if not entirely) fictitious the stories are somewhat well know and his death is a part of the sagas

My grandparents had never seen a black person in their life until the 80's (they had read about them in books tho). They were relatively high class aswell. My friends grandparents from a completely different part of Norway hadn't seen any black people until the 80's either.

pic related: A coastal city in south Norway year 1950, not a single non European person lived there.
>>
>>70183515
the first known black man entered Iceland in the late 18th century iirc
an escaped slave from some Danish Caribbean colony

and I don't remember seeing a nigger until I went to Spain for the first time when I was like 5
they're more common now though

I agree with you and that's mostly what I meant.

>but that's literally what's happening

Yes and it was for one video game, the most popular video game in human history,and the outrage was only online for a short amount of time.

No actual black person that enjoyed the Witcher or eurocentric fantasy, literature, film and video games in general, complains about lack of black people.

It's not a fair thing to lump everyone in with one person who wrote an online article and caused a stir.

That's GTA V

>>70181883
>missionary mission

I'm sure medieval Europeans were happy to let Muslims travel the land trying to convert Christians. Surely such a thing would not have ended in a swift beheading.
>>
>>70182178
>only blondes lived in the norse
they were brown haired and ginger as well, but i agree with the point you're making. no niggers.
>>
>>70183127
moors were not common throughout medieval europe

yes they existed, but they were diplomats and merchants who would come in small numbers and deal with royalty
they didn't go very far either, you would not have found them in northern europe, but southern europe
>>
>>70181742
>medieval
But yes, the show is complete garbage which the very first episode demonstrated quite well.
