In Norse myths, the end of their world is Ragnarok. That is when Fenrir breaks from his tethers, Midgard serpent comes from the sea, and Loki is freed. Most of the gods will die, then Baldur will come back to life and two humans live to repruduce.

The last battle in the viking mythology?

The Ragnarok... It's an epic end of the world event which culminates in a great battle in which many of the gods such as Odin, Thor, and Loki die, the world becomes submersed in water and there are only two humans who survive. After these events, the water recedes, the earth is reborn and the surviving gods make peace. The 2 remaining humans repopulate the earth and a new civilization arises.


What was the viking belief system like?

The Vikings had a polytheistic belief system. The head of the Gods was Odin, who was god of poetry and wisdom. Also important were Freyr (god of fertility) and Thor, according to legend, when he rides his chariot drawn by goats and swings his hammer, thunderstorms occur. They believed that the Gods resided in Asgard, humans lived in Midgard while Giants (enemies of the Gods in Norse mythology) lived in Jotunheim. If a Viking did not die in battle, it was believed he would go to an underworld called Hel. If he did die in battle he would go to Asgard and feast in the Odin's hall Valhalla until the day of Ragnarok (Norse Armageddon), where they would the Gods in battle. The battle would ultimately result in the death of most of the Gods.


How did the Vikings' religion help them in battle?

First off the Vikings liked to fight, like Star Trek's Klingons. Read Beowulf, Hrolf Kraki's Saga or Gisli the Outlaw to see what their idealized life was like.Casual and brutal behavior was accepted as the mark of a real man. As a consequence the idea of an afterlife which could only be attained by death in battle appealed to them. If they died a coward they would not have any after life. Add to this the fact that the afterlife consisted of all night beer busts with all day bloody battles as training for the final battle between the gods and giants followed by immediate repair on the way back to the party and it seemed to be just right. The fact that the final battle (Ragnarok) was going to be a loss for them didn't matter.
