CE 793 - The Vikings farrive.

CE 793 marks the first recorded Viking raid on the British Isles, when a group of Norwegian Vikings attacked the monastery of Lindisfarne in Northumbria.

This event is sometimes referred to as the start of the Viking Age in British history.

The raid on Lindisfarne was followed by other raids on monasteries and towns along the coast of England.

The Vikings were known for their ruthless tactics and their ability to quickly establish settlements in newly conquered areas.

In 865, the Great Heathen Army, led by Ivar the Boneless, invaded the British Isles, conquering the Kingdom of Northumbria and establishing the Danelaw in the region.

The Vikings also made inroads into Scotland, establishing settlements in the Hebrides and Orkney Islands.

In 1016, the Danish King Cnut the Great became the ruler of England, Denmark and Norway and is considered the first Scandinavian king of England.
