----------

The Vikings TV series is a historical drama that originally aired from 2013 to 2020, focusing on the legendary Norse hero Ragnar Lothbrok and his descendants. The show blends historical events with Norse myths and legends to tell the story of Viking raiders and explorers during the Early Middle Ages. Ragnar starts as a farmer with a thirst for knowledge and exploration, eventually rising to become a legendary warrior and king. Alongside him are compelling characters like his wife Lagertha, his best friend Floki, and his various sons, each with their own ambitions and conflicts.

The series explores Viking culture, their clashes with other kingdoms, and their impact on history. It delves into themes of power, family, loyalty, and the consequences of war. Though it takes liberties with historical accuracy for the sake of storytelling, Vikings provides an immersive look into a world of longships, shield walls, and the clash of civilizations.

What annoyed me about this scene and in general the Rollo arc is that it shows Rollo as the only Viking to accept christianity and settle there and it doesn't show all the other Vikings that chose him as their ruler and decided to settle in Normandy. Those other Vikings were crucial to stopping further Viking raids into France, and they should have been shown in this scene fighting against the Norse.

Season 4 probed that without Rollo.... Ragnar couldn't achieve what he achieved but He never give credit to Rollo.... But Rollo achieved everything on his own

Not a single phone in sight. Just people enjoying the moment

Love Clive's acting in this scene. You can see the regret on his face, and the apprehension, especially when Lagartha gets close enough that he can see her and she him - they were still family once upon his time. But Paris is his home now, so he has to defend it. And he does it incredibly.

I love when rolo wipes the smug look off of his “friends” faces. They finally came to understand he’s not just a brute

[brinkgats]

I always liked this scene. It shows that if a Norseman/ Dane could be sided on the other side, they could just use the tactics against the Norse/ Danes.

[BigJerry-cmpn]

That's the silliest looking fort I've ever seen.

[thilohettmer]

2:42 Have you ever noticed, that soldier is pointing his crossbow on Rollos head while reloading :D

[joanllinasbas]

so many pirates meeting their ends. Glorious! (jokes aside, it felt good watching the vikings fail as they are mostly shown just steamrolling everything)

[mysterythekitsune]

Love how the French denied melee combat to the Vikings and just wear them down using crossbows and traps.

[Rombizio]

Historically the battle was weird. 30k vikings against Paris 200 men garrison. A 150 to 1 ratio. The vikings got there and had no siege weapons that worked properly and the ones that worked were useless against the walls. They literally had no chance despite outnumbering the Parisian army by so much. They never even left the fortress to fight and the siege lasted for several months. This was the second attack on Paris. The first one had been successful.

[jakublizon]

Finally, a realistic fight. Danes had absolutely no shot of taking a powerful city like Paris. They weren't organized enough and we're technologically challenged. Sure, they were big strong brave warriors but this is the 10th century. Get with the times.

[diogenes]

Rollo casually being one of the GOATs of the early middle ages.

[ianmetcalfe]

It really helps to know your enemies. he never even attempted to fight melee as his men stood no chance But had a huge advantage at range except for viking Hawkeye at 5.26. Those towers couldn't have been place better.

This was the true power of Christianity back then, you earn your side among us regardless your origin once you are baptized, similar principle to that use in Roman law. The church did well in preserving old Greek and Roman knowledge.

In the Game of Thrones books, there was a chain raised during The Battle of Blackwater that trapped much of Stannis’ ships in as the wildfire ships detonated. We never got to see the chain in the show, but this is a close similarity.

[otterlydivergent]

The mighty, viking soldiers called upon their plot armor to help them win the battle, but it denied their request.

[michaelclark]

Everyone saw rollo as a traitor here but he had Every right to protect his home here from ragnar

[kingsizeblues]

Poor girl got killed at 7:25 then again at 9:00

That's really unlucky :/

[hahapack]

They came twice to Paris.We were ready for them on their second"visit" and we whooped their asses.Allez La France!
