Sweyn Forkbeard - Part 4/4 (The First Viking King of England)
In this final episode covering the Danish Viking King Sweyn Forkbeard, we follow along as he relentlessly pursues his war of attrition against Aethelred the Unready of England. A 10 year marathon, steadily draining their economic and military power, sapping their morale and will to put up a viable resistance. Culminating in a full scale invasion in July 1013, that by the end of that year, would have him ascend to the throne as the first Viking King of England. We then review Forkbeard’s legacy, who ushered in one of the most monumental achievements of the Viking Age during its twilight years.
