Canute, also known as Cnut the Great, was a Norse king who ruled over England, Denmark, Norway, and parts of what is now Sweden during the early 11th century. He is best known for his attempts to unify and strengthen these territories under a single crown. Leif Eriksson was a Norse explorer from Iceland, recognized as one of the first Europeans to reach North America around the year 1000, establishing a settlement called Vinland, believed to be located in present-day Newfoundland, Canada. Both figures played significant roles in the Viking Age, contributing to the Norse exploration and expansion in Europe and beyond.
