Slide 3 - Slide

793 AD
Raid on Lindisfarne, England

A raid that shocked the Christian world
Monasteries were easy targets

'Why had God allowed this?'

Slide 4 - Slide

Why did Vikings start raiding?
  • Population of Scandinavia was growing
  • Not enough farmland and food in Scandinavia
  • Maybe also: misunderstandings when they came to trade?

  • Fighting did not work
  • Kings and nobles tried to bribe the Vikings to stop their raids with money and/or lands

Slide 9 - Slide

It did not always work
  • Vikings did not always keep their promises

  • Bribes only worked for one clan of Vikings - not for the others

  • (Dorestad was raided 6 times, even though it was a Viking city after the first 3 raids)
