The Viking Age, spanning from the late 8th to the mid-11th centuries, marked a period of significant cultural, political, and economic transformation in Northern Europe. During this era, the Vikings, seafaring Norse warriors and traders, embarked on daring expeditions across vast stretches of water, leaving an indelible mark on the history and development of various regions. Their raids, conquests, and settlements extended from Scandinavia to distant lands, shaping the political landscape and influencing cultural practices throughout Europe.
