Canute the Great, also known as Cnut in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicles, or Knut (died November 12, 1035) was a Viking king of England and Denmark, and Norway, and of some of Sweden. He lived from 995 to 1035 AD. He ruled England from 1016 to 1035. He famously sat on the beach and commanded the tide to turn back to demonstrate that there were powers over which even the mighty Cnut had no control.
