The Oxford classic series created by more than 100 academicians over 40 years! Punching Britain, kicking France, giving birth to Russia, and discovering North America, the Vikings were a nightmare for the entire Europe. In the 8th century AD, a group of pirates called "Vikings" appeared in Scandinavia in northern Europe. They drove long boats around, smashing and looting, and carried out organized invasions of European countries. From Britain, France to Russia, Viking pirates can be seen everywhere. In addition to fighting, the Vikings were also great navigators and are considered to be the first to land on the American continent. From the 8th century to the 11th century AD, the whole of Europe was turned upside down by Viking pirates. This period was even called the "Viking Age."
