Did Vikings Hate Christians? Part One: Romans, Charlemagne and Nuance! Oh my!

Everyone knows the Vikings raided Christian sites like monasteries and abbeys, but did they hate Christian people? Did Christians hate Vikings and Old Norse pagans?

There's more nuance to the story here than first meets the eye, and that's why I'm doing a two-parter for a change! This video takes us from the fall of the Roman Empire, via the rise of the Franks and Charlemagne, through the Migration era and up to the start of the Viking age.

Strap in! Get a drink. Maybe two...
