After seven years of twisting storylines and epic battles, the Vikings series finally came to its conclusion earlier this year. From its humble beginning as a Canadian History Channel exclusive to one of the most popular series in the western world, it certainly had quite the run.
Not only did it garner the interest of a substantial audience, but its success feels as though it has helped take Viking culture mainstream.
There’s been a marked rise in Vikingdom across pop-culture ever since its launch as new TV shows and movies seemingly sought to replicate its success. Only just last year Assassin’s Creed Valhalla’s story also featured more than a few similarities to Vikings’ plot.
Viking culture really is everywhere these days, but how well do you remember the show that kicked it all off? Here we’ve put together a trivia quiz sure to test even the most seasoned warriors and shield maidens. Skoll!
