Impact of viking culture on Europe?
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.
Why did vikings do what they did?
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.
