Krieg said:Yeah maybe but the Vikings were still illiterate, brought only death and destruction without implementing a vast trading empire, and only used giant axes (well maybe a few swords, which were surely little more than crude iron bars), and ate babies...and rode motorcycles right?!
*ponders to self* .oOI wonder just how long I can drag this out...
Actually, Vikings had Futhark, a runic alphabet. Elder Futhark has 24 characters, many of which are familiar to the Alphabet.
viking graves have revealed plenty of viking swords.
Vikings are no more cannabalistic than any other european culture.
However, I am certain, that if motorcycles had been invented back then, Vikings would be riding them, while all other nations were restricted to Vespas. And those Vespa riders would be beaten for riding such a sissy mode of transportation.
