Mighty Vikings
The Nordic's are Rich in Viking History. We enjoyed so much learning about them while in Iceland, Denmark and Norway this May. The Icelandic Nordics's were and are fishermen by trade and well known for their small horses with beautiful long manes. Iceland is called, "The Land of Fire and Ice", since it is all volcanic and mostly snow covered!! The Danish Vikings were Mighty Warriors conquering everyone around them, whereas the Norwegian Vikings were more the Farmer type. All of them held family in the highest regard. Later the Danish and Norwegian Nordics became well known for their quality craftsmanship in wood tooling and fine furniture making selling their wares by ship. They'd sail up and down (and all around) Western Europe. Interestingly enough using the same routes they once used to conquer and terrorize! No matter the era in time, the Nordic Vikings are respected as hard working family oriented survivors that never give up!
