The Vikings
left Scandinavia for new lands. In 793, they raided the English monastery at
Lindesfarne ushering in the Viking Age. Europe seemed on the verge of exiting
the Dark Ages when the Vikings struck.
Viking raids over the next few centuries bankrupted kingdoms and tossed
the continent back into disarray. The Viking Age ended when the Earth entered
into the Little Ice Age.
