The Nordic language of the Vikings impacted European culture. Many of their words have been infiltrated into several European languages. Many village names in Britain can be traced back to Nordic origins. In addition, the Vikings left their genetic imprint on the various people they conquered.
The Vikings were seagoing Norse people. They mixed with the Anglo-Saxons to become the modern English and with the people of northern France to become the Normans.
"Viking" can be a proper noun when it refers specifically to the Norse people who raided and settled in parts of Europe during the Viking Age. In this context, it is capitalized. However, when used as a common noun to describe someone who embodies characteristics associated with Vikings or to refer to general Norse culture, it is not capitalized.
Norse is a term used to coin the predominant culture, language and mythology of Scandinavians in pre-Christian times. This period of Norse culture largely coincides with the Viking era, when Scandinavians excelled in ship building and both raided and traded in Europe by help of their innovative and superior longship technology. The name "Viking" has several interpretations, but most probably it´s connected to the Norse (and also modern Norwegian) word "Vik" which means "bay" or "fjord". When travelling by ship to Europe and elsewhere, men went into "Viking". So originally "Viking" is an act, not the name of a people - only men who travelled by ship did Viking.
Vikings are well known for fighting and raiding, but they were also farmers and traders and merchants, and excellent seafarers and navigators. They lived in Scandinavia, or Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, and Iceland. They also raided and settled in much of Northern Europe.
