Cnut the Dane, Aethelred the Unready and the Viking Conquest of England, 978-1016 | full documentary

The late tenth century. Anglo-Saxon England was at the height of its powers. The Viking invasions had been subdued. But was disaster lurking around the corner? Could the Norse raiders return? This is the story of Aethelred the Unready, Sweyn Forkbeard, Cnut the Dane and Edmund Ironside. In 991, Olaf Tryggvason of Norway moved with a Viking fleet on Maldon in Essex. Here, Olaf faced the aged ealdorman Byrhtnoth of Essex in one of the defining battles of the era. What followed was years of renewed Viking raids across England. King Aethelred refused to pick up a sword and lead the defense of his country. For the English churchmen of the time, this was the apocalypse as foretold in the Book of Revelation. This is the reign of Aethelred the Unready, and the greatest crisis in the history of Anglo-Saxon England. Get my book about the Crusades: http://www.amazon.com/Why-Does-Heathe...
