The Vikings showed up on the European scene around the late 700s. They controlled almost all of Scandinavia, Iceland, much of England, parts of northern France, and even made it to North America. Descendants of the Vikings called the Normans invaded and claimed all of England form Harold I in 1066.

Were vikings civilised?

It depends on what you mean by "civilized": if you mean was there a thing, anthropologically or socially speaking, as "Viking civilization" (advanced culture, art, literature, technology, religion, etc.), then clearly yes--and visit to any of the many Viking museums in Scandinavia or reading of the Old Norse Sagas should make it clear that the Vikings had a civilization in this sense. At its greatest extent, Viking civilization stretched from the Black Sea to North America, surrounding nearly the entire Baltic Sea and penetrating deep into England, and included towns and cities such as Aarhus, Kaupang, Jorvik (now known as York).If you mean were the Vikings polite and refined, then sort of: they had rules for proper social behavior, etiquette, and honor within their own society, but they were also perceived as brutal and terrible warriors by outsiders.
