RE: Viking history - part 5 - The traders.
A very interesting article with a very extraordinary language.
I remember school time, we had learned about the Viking tribe famous for the nation of merchants, cultivators, and most famous as pirates.
People are very afraid of the brutality of the Vikings because they are reluctant to kill both children and women.
The Vikings were also very good at making ships. I think the ability was so amazing at the time.
Please permit to ask, Sir! "Why the Vikings except merchants, but they do robbery?"
Thank you for something extraordinary.
Regards @gyldenhorn!
Hi @Roman-sabil and thx a lot for reading my post!
To your questions if I understood it correctly:
The vikings were both merchants and robbers/plunders. Sometime they saw it fit to do trading with others when they could benefit form it, and other times, when they for example needed land, they went on a raiding party.
We also have to remember that the viking culture were hard and they had other believes than the people elsewhere in Europe
Thank you Sir to answer a beautiful. greetings!
