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.
