Those who lived in the Viking Age lived life dangerously. The average lifespan was short – perhaps 30 years. And if wear, hunger, or disease did not take you, there was a great risk of ending up a head shorter than when you woke up. Not even one's own family could be trusted. Especially not if you were a king. The story of the early monarchy is about conflict-ready rulers, who with a sword in one hand and spades in the other, consolidated power over Denmark and founded one of the world's oldest kingdoms. A kingdom, which at this time truly stepped onto the European great power scene. With life at stake.
