Big Viking Boat


Recommended Posts

The Vikings terrorized just about all of Europe for centuries.  

 

Interesting factoid - Many people of African descent think that the word "slavery" 

has something to do with their own ethnicity. But in fact, the word comes from "Slav" 

(makes sense, right?) because of the many many thousands of slavic people kidnapped 

the the Vikings and sold as chattel around the Mediterranean.
