Did You Know?
Trivia | The Norse people did not actually refer to themselves as Vikings as an ethnic or national identity. Viking was a profession and was the term for the act of raiding across the sea or a person participating in such an activity. See more » |
Goofs | In history, Norsemen dressed more extravagantly and possibly more provocatively than portrayed in the show. They dressed in bright colors, bathed weekly and used primitive hair-dyes. See more » |

Floki:
Who needs a reason for betrayal? One must always think the worst Ragnar, even of your own kin. That way, you avoid too much disappointment in life. See more » |
