Vikings

Leif eriksson travelled from Greenland and went north until he discovered Baffin Island. he discovered this first.he then continued on with his journey and discovered Markland, which he named after the amount of forest there and vinland which he named for the amount of grapes there. there were no grapes in iceland or Greenland, so this was important. he then found that this was perfect land for him and his crew to settle, so the did and brought leif's family there too. i don't know if he ever went back to Greenland or iceland.

He was the first European explorer before Christopher Columbus to land in North America.

The Most famous of vikings was Lief Ericson who lived in the 10th c. He was the first European to reach N. America, we all may know and hear that Columbus discovered America which is true but truly it was Lief Ericson. Columbus was just the first to ever settle down here, Ericson did not, that's why he isn't as popular in American History as Columbus.

Because he heard stories about the land that Bjarni saw. This land had timber, which was scarce in Greenland.

No, they were from every other Northen-Europe country, exept Dennmark

a timeline of leif eriksson is what he did during his life

Vikings didn't stay in Canada because after the aboriginal people like the Beothuk & Inuit knew that the Vikings are planing to stay, battles broke out between them.

The vikings,both greatly outnumbered ans discouraged by the harsh climate, eventually abandoned their North American settlement.

His greatest accomplishment was discovering America, with a crew of only 35 men (approximately). He also sailed to Norway on his own, at the age of 15, but this was not his greatest accomplishment.

Vikings originated in the late 1800 century. These are people such as Indians that were in Native Countries in certain parts of the world. They also aren't too popular.

they killed them and ate there heads and pooed on there hands

I saw a documentary as a child in Tanzania East Africa in the late '50s - as part of Pre Movie Trailer - where they showed the Vikings travelling on a Viking ship and were served meat and potatoes - the knives they used to cut the meat were sharp and very pointed -alomst dagger like . The meat they were served was very hard

and the ships crew members got into an argument with the chef and one of crew members threw the knife at him with the pointed end alomost killing him. The Captian and the Chef then 'rounded off' all the knives and thus was born the knife we use now - although we have become more civilzed and are able to eat the hardest of all the meats with the steak knives and do not complian!

Whether information on that documentary ws true or not , but it tickled my fancy and have been telling this story to all ever since

As a compass. They dangled the metallic stone from a string, knowing it would point north.

Ethnicities are not static. This means that the idea of being "French" or "Chinese" is invented, not an eternal state of nature, and is often determined by localized and immediate factors. The ethnicities and nationalities of "Swedish" and "Norwegian" do not go back to the Viking period and are, in fact, a reaction to the end of the Viking Period when the Scandinavian peoples were finally able to settle into agrarian societies of their own.

Since there are no such things as Swedish and Norwegian Vikings, the question as written is impossible to answer. However, if the question is read to be asking about the relations between neighboring Viking Tribes, these would alternate with the differing needs of the tribes. If they needed to trade goods, they would maintain amicable relations, but if they wanted direct access to a certain piece of land or to avenge a personal grievance, they would attack each other quite violently.

A viking expedition could last for up to six months. They would start as soon as winter ended, and return before summer ended.

They would sail up and down the coast, trading at the trading centers, then occasionally sailing up river with their longships and raiding a relatively defenseless village or two, getting the spoils of war to trade with.
