When Was The Viking Age?

If you take the word "Viking" to mean "Scandinavian" then the Viking Age basically never ended. But that won't do! We're historians! We like to put things into time periods, ages, epochs and categories.

So let's take a more nuanced, detailed look at when Viking raids actually took place in parts of Europe in the early medieval age, how they happened, and what replaced them once Norway, Denmark and Sweden got a little more established in the middle ages.

This video doesn't look as much at some of the eastern Baltic and Slavic areas, because that'll be in a whole other video all of its own.
