I think you mean WERE, as there aren't really any "real" vikings today.

Besides that, the notion of vikings being fat is a misconception, in a similar fashion as the horns on the helmet.

Some were fat indeed, but it was by no means the norm.

Ireland and the British Isles were conquered by Vikings.

Some were called Borgs, or Berks, depending on if you are talking Scandinavian or Norwegian, it really depends. Hope this helps!

No, blonde hair and blue eyes is not an exclusive Nordic trait, and you can not determine somebody's race or sub-race by just looking at their skin/eye/hair color. Facial and bone structure must be taken into consideration as well.

The Vikings had ships called long boats they could fit 40-60 people in one!!!!!

The Saxons (from modern Germany), along with Angles and Jutes, invaded or migrated to Britain around the time of the collapse of the Roman Era in the 5th Century AD (400-500 AD).

The Vikings of Scandinavia first began invading England in 793 AD.

Leif Ericson was the first European Viking to set foot in the New World ( America), 500 years before Christopher Columbus. However, the vikings made few voyages to America after Leif and it was forgotten again until Christopher Columbus found it again in 1492.

They were located in Scandinavia also known as modern day Norway, Sweden, and Denmark.

There are millions of vikings i think there are still vikings

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.

A Viking slave was called a thrall.

A viking Town was very crowded and could have up to 50 houses in it. They had a large wooden fence around them for protection and and they were usually built by the sea so bats could go in and out.

Europeans responded to Viking raids with a mix of fear, fortification, and retaliation. Many communities built defensive structures, such as walls and castles, to protect against attacks, while local rulers sought alliances and military responses to fend off Viking incursions. Increased trade and interaction with the Vikings also led to cultural exchanges, as some regions began to adopt aspects of Viking culture. Over time, the raids diminished, and many Vikings settled in the territories they had previously attacked, leading to the integration of Norse culture into European societies.

It allowed them to create democracy and the Olympics.

Silver and gold, as well as cattle. They didn't usually have coins, a regular person would instead have an arm ring made of coiled silver with knotches marking out weight. So if something was two units of silver, he would take off his armring, and use his steel Seax knife or Scramasax to cut out the two pieces of silver. Then the arm ring went back on the arm.

Not at all.

In many parts of Europe, especially Eastern Europe, the Vikings were known primarily as traders rather than as raiders. These places included much of Eastern Europe and Russia, where they were regarded with respect and valued as merchants. They traded in other parts of Europe as well, but were vilified, especially in Western Europe, for raiding and piracy, partly because they were pagans. They traded as far as the shores of the Caspian Sea, Constantinople, Sicily, and Spain, mostly along the coasts and up the rivers.
