Do the Vikings deserve their violent reputation?
I think that the Vikings don’t deserve their violent reputation for the following reasons:
Firstly, most Vikings were farmers, traders or explorers so they wouldn’t have been fighting and killing and destroying other tribes. Only a tribe of Vikings called the Beserkers went on the rampage; killing people. Some Vikings were so brave that they sailed all of the way to America just for exploration!
Secondly, no other tribe had ever been into Viking settlements so they had no idea about what the peaceful, majestic inside was like. These humans were feared all throughout Europe for no reason at all. Other people could only see the ruthless side of them. This tribe was as bad as the Romans or Anglo Saxons at peak. Some had proper mechanical powers to build sleek, powerful boats called longships. THE VIKINGS WERE AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
good reasons
