Bloodthirsty pillagers? No, the Vikings who invaded Britain 1,000 years ago were on a mission of love because rich polygamists back home were marrying all the women
嗜血强盗?千年之前侵略英国的维京人赋予新使命,荣归故里娶下所有女人。

There was no Celts when the Vikings arrived they was Saxons , the Celts ruled this land the time the Romans arrived and before. Saxons arrived after the Celts.[CN]
维京人到的时候不是凯尔特人,是撒克逊人。凯尔特人是罗马入侵前后抵达的。撒克逊人是凯尔特人之后才入侵的。

Tupperware, yes the Vikings were in Ireland and Scotland and many parts of Britain but the article says the Celts were here when the Vikings arrived which isn't true. The Vikings arrived in Britain in AD 793 when the Celts were here in 750 BC to 12 BC.[CN]
Tupperware,没错,维京人遍布冰岛、苏格兰和英国其他地方,但文章说,维京人到达的时候凯尔特人已经存在了的说法是错误的。维京人在公元793年抵达英国的。凯尔特人是公元前750年 -12世纪抵达的。

I think we should be paid reparations from Scandinavia, they should be ashamed of their colonial past and check their privilege. Oh, does that only work for us?Farmer Giles
Funny lot in those countries. Have you seen the price of their booze? You've got to have the wealth of Sven before you could even walk into an off licence. No wonder they top themselves a lot. When you live in cold climes, you have to imbibe a bit to keep your sanity. By the way Bjorn, you can turn your headlights off when the sun comes up.LeeW
My great, great great grandpa was a berserker who ate magic mushrooms before battle, drunk mead and whose only wish was to die with steel in his hand so that the Valkyrie would carry him to Valhalla.bob_001
Men coming here because of polygamy back home. That couldn't happen now, could it.The Moral Manager
If the Vikings were still around, they'd be sent on sexual consent training courses.JenniferJane
One side of my mother's family has the surname Lingard, which has Scandinavian origins. I'd love to be able to afford to trace it right back to when it came into tbe family.LondonzoneReply toJenniferJane
Good idea... then we can prove that you owe the British people reparations for the crimes your ancestors did against Britons! But then again... the civilised British don't hold a grudge and expect to be given reparations for things that happened in the past... that had nothing to do with people that are alive today. So, good luck with your searching.Alexandra Sands
I am a Viking. I had my DNA done at Oxford Uni. I am very proud of that fact.Scotty GreenReply toAlexandra Sands
Londonzone.......I too have Viking blood. I will agree to your demand but only after you have successfully collected from the Romans, the Saxons, the Normans, the Gauls and the Irish.......and maybe that guy down the street that you are told was your 'Uncle'Concerned
Who remembers that advert years ago of a beautiful girl in a hut with screams and shouts of 'the Vikings are coming, the Vikings are coming' she screams and cries in fear until her door is broken down and this gorgeous blonde Viking barges in and throws her over his shoulder, whereby she rubs his back saying softly 'No, oh no....
