Viking Kingdoms

S1 • E4 Jul 22, 2015 45mThis episode follows the rise and fall of the Scandinavian dynasties as they attempted to establish themselves as sole rulers over their lands and as they learned the qualities of kingship from the lands they attacked. It starts in far off Iceland where the chronicles of Snorri Sturlusen relate the saga of these kings who shaped the Viking world: they have warrior names such as herald Bluetooth, Eirik Bloodaxe, Ivar the Boneless. Their stories stretch from Lake Lagoda, now in Russia, to Greenland, from Trondheim to Palermo where remains of the epic Viking adventure still exist today.
