The beginning of the Viking age

The first season of Viking Legends tells the story of the Norwegian Ragnar Rossbrook from a farmer to a noble Jal. The play is based on history, dissolving Nordic mythology, fantasy stories and thriller suspense into it, turning it into a magical mystical potion, making the audience unable to stop, as if being on the scene, experiencing the Viking’s conquest of the ocean and the opposition. The plunder and tyranny of other civilizations in Europe, Asia and Africa.
Ragnar Rosebrook walked out of a mountain village, and his obsession to drive west led him to go on his own way to the British Isles, and began the Nordic era of navigation and the European Viking era. As the first person to eat crabs, he was always made things difficult by the old school. Until the moment when Ragnar returned with a full load, this kind of criticism was not eliminated. However, it became an excuse for the old lord to increase his power, plunder wealth, and eliminate dissidents. "I am your lord, and everything you have is mine!" The old lord's greed and maintenance of his power made Ragnar sprout strangers. Every ruler is afraid of the rise of new powers, robs of his original achievements, steals his power, and fears that his crown will fall. The disgust of the old lord is inevitable, and the uniqueness of the Vikings is that since they have been challenged, they can be regarded as an insult, and they can just be killed! This may occur less frequently in other civilizations, because other civilizations, especially farming civilizations, generally find an unreasonable charge to remove pretenders, such as the author of Man Jianghong, and so on. How can anyone survive?
Ragnar survived the attack of the old lord. I don't know if it was Odin's call or Ragnar's insistence and arbitrariness. He limped and challenged the old lord. The ending can be imagined, the first experience of a national hero. It should be pointed out that in the play, the priest Ansenstein captured by Ragner from the Kingdom of Northumbran in Britain is a key point in the play for humanity issues. In the following stories, many of the problems of today’s society will be reflected in Ansenstein’s and Vikings are in various contacts.
After watching the first season, I can’t help comparing the Viking Legends with the Game of Thrones. The former is a fantasy history, and the latter is a historical fantasy. Although they are all about power, conspiracy, and wealth struggles, the Viking Legends give people more realism. Feel, and get closer to our lives. From the perspective of ordinary people, everyone's dreams are said. Who doesn't want to go down in history? Who doesn't want to start from scratch and have a fortune? Ragnar did it. He was originally a farmer, just like us, an ordinary person. What he has is a perseverance, a perseverance and tenacity, and most importantly, he can think. It is possible that what we lack now is either obsession or thinking. The Game of Thrones is from a more macro perspective, more like our Romance of the Three Kingdoms, where the seven kingdoms compete in battle, and it is unknown who will die. Micro and macro, only the appetite for you is the best.
