information of different parts of the Vikings culture including its religious, political, and
ferocious sides. Many of the different parts of the Viking culture are nescessary for the
vikings way of life itself, such as the weapons and ships they used. The ships were made of
light wood in a small pointed shape so they could move up to shore before a village had time to
react. The weapons the vikings used weren't particularly inventive or fancy in anyway, but it
was the men behind them that were the true horror. All of which stemmed from the vikings
philosophy on the way of life.

but also there history and migration from region to region. The vikings, being a pillaging
society didn't require natural resources of their own because they took anything they needed
from neighboring villages. Because of this, the vikings were free to migrate from different
areas and climates constantly due to their versatility. This caused some of the most famous
sighting and events of Viking pillages, such as the many that occurred in Ireland due to its
surplus of monasteries.
