The medieval Scandinavians left an impact not just on Greenland and Iceland, but on France, England, Russia, Ireland, and even briefly North America. But how did Scandinavian society begin, and what incited its voyage across the seas? Who was Rollo "the Walker" and the Great Heathen Army? How did Thorgest shape the religion and culture of Ireland? From the Rus Vikings to Greenland explorers like Bjarni, Freydis, and Leif Erikson--aka "Leif the Lucky", we'll be following the Vikings and their impact on cultures around the world.

We really enjoyed revisiting this series and getting to implement the viewer feedback that Rob had previously only been able to address in Lies.
