Viking heritage of the Rurik dynasty

The Rurik dynasty's Viking heritage, alluded to here, is a topic of substantial controversy amongst Russian historians. I am not qualified to speak out on the subject but a professional historian of Russia should craft a more nuanced and informed statement on the subject.

Viking Age in Estonia

Viking Age in Estonia is an official historical period. How should it be included in this article? A separate subheadline? Blomsterhagens (talk) 09:43, 17 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No. If you have good useable sources why not incorporate it in the article? Sorry for being late, but I guess this is still a relevant issue? RhinoMind (talk) 18:57, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Added Legacy section

Hi, and I probably did lots of newbie mistakes, like the font sizes of the subsections (Settlements and English Language). The text in the "Scandinavia" section is also very short ... I was considering including "Genetics" in the Legacy section, but I'm not sure if that is correct.

PS: I also removed Dorestad from the list of Baltic trading stations.
PPS: I also streamlined the wording in the leidang passage (under "Technology").

Viking Rule

"Harold Harefoot became king of England after Cnut's death, and Viking rule of England ceased." Since Harefoot was Cnut's son, how is it that Viking rule of England ceased? Manannan67 (talk) 03:56, 2 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
