Why is the viking homeland important to the vikings?

That should be 'was important', since there haven't been any vikings around for nearly one thousand years.


Who are Norse Riders or Vikings?

I'm assuming you are relating to the Saxons, who are often called Vikings. They were a people, originating in the Jutland, who often raided coastal towns, as well as towns near rivers, during the early medieval period. These raids were primarily concentrated on the British Isles, though there were instances in northern Europe. In addition, a Viking by the name "Erik the Red", should I recall properly, sailed to "Greenland" (present-day Greenland), and there is even archaeological evidence that these people even established villages on the eastern coast of Canada, in Nova Scotia.

What did the vikings value?

"After battle-prowess and leadership, the next most important virtue of the Germanic king or lord was generosity. The spoils of war which are captured in battle by the war-band belong entirely to the ruler. In turn, it is the duty of the lord to be open handed in the extreme with these riches. As the Old Norse proverb has it: Gjöf sér æ til gjalda, "A gift always looks for a return" -- in return for service, the lord granted gifts, in return for gifts, the warrior granted service (Foote and Wilson, p. 424)." [Note: "Germanic" here does not mean "German" - it refers to the shared culture of northernmost Europe during the Migration Age and the Viking Age. It should also be pointed out that Vikings did not only come from among the Norse and Swedes (on the Scandinavian penisula), but also the peoples of the north shore of Europe - the Danes, Frisians, Saxons, etc.)]


Why do vikings travel around the word?

The Vikings were a wild bunch of people, loved fighting and invading other lands and castles, and were good sailors. The question should, of course, have said 'did' not 'do', since the Vikings haven't been around for many centuries. They travelled far, though not completely around the world, because there was little land in the Norweigian fjords for agriculture, thus they had to find land for settlements elsewhere. One of the Viking descendents in France became William the Conqueror (1066 and all that).
