Vikings Spewed Violence
Vikings were fierce, ferocious, frightening warriors, who ruthlessly invaded Europe for about 400 years. They spewed violence throughout the country, indiscriminately murdering most of the population, leaving it in ruins. Because of their unrestrained bloodshed, these warriors became known as berserkers, who fought like raving psychopaths. Therefore, anguish filled the hearts of all people and amongst the myriad of all the prayers could be heard this one, “God deliver us from the fury of the Norsemen.” No person was safe from the pillaging of the Vikings as they took animals, food, valuables, and land using hundreds of warships to invade Europe in their fatal raids.
