How Did Vikings Abandon an Entire Continent? — 400 Years in Greenland, 20 Years in America

The Vikings reached North America 500 years before Columbus, built settlements, and then completely vanished. This is the untold story of how Norse explorers survived 400 years in Greenland but abandoned America after just 20 years — and why climate change erased them from history until 1960. In this video, you'll discover: How Erik the Red used history's first "marketing scam" to convince 500 people to settle Greenland in 985 CE Why Leif Eriksson's discovery of Vinland around year 1000 should have changed world history The real reason Vikings abandoned North America despite superior weapons and technology How the L'Anse aux Meadows settlement proves Columbus wasn't first Why the Little Ice Age (1300-1450) collapsed the entire Norse Atlantic chain The mysterious abandonment of the Western Settlement in 1350 — found completely deserted How two archaeologists in 1960 finally proved the "myths" were real This isn't just a story about exploration. It's about how climate change can erase entire civilizations, how technology doesn't guarantee survival, and how easily history can be forgotten.
