The Vikings significantly influenced Scotland through their raids, settlements, and cultural exchanges from the late 8th to the 11th centuries. They established coastal and island settlements, particularly in the Northern Isles, and intermingled with local populations, which impacted language, trade, and agriculture. Norse mythology and governance structures also left a lasting legacy, with place names and cultural practices reflecting their influence. This interaction ultimately shaped Scotland's social and political landscape during the early medieval period.

The Vikings.
At various times in its history, Scotland has been invaded by the Irish, Vikings, Romans, English.
Vikings had an impact mainly on what is now Scotland and Ireland; their influence on England and Wales was limited mainly to the east and southeast of England and, after the pogrom which killed most able-bodied Vikings, virtually non-existent. The Anglo-Saxons greatly influenced England causing all natives to adopt their ways which lasted longer than the impact of the Romans. Except for the short-lived invasion of Angle Northumbria into southern Alba, (Scotland), the Anglo-Saxons main influence would be by trade with the other British Isles.
There are old Viking settlements in the Shetland Islands.
