The Danelaw - Alfred vs. Guthrum - Extra History - Part 1

Gutrhum is him bruh


Edit: NEVERMIND

Impossible to watch this without thinking about the first season of The Last Kingdom!

This is easily the best thing to come out of Thrones of Britannia

I know it probably didn’t happen but I LOVE the idea of Guthrum getting a little WWE intro when he crashed the Christmas feast

Why not just kill Guthrum and take East Anglia for himself??

Guthrum is athlestan ?

Wait. Isn't that the last Kingdom Story ?

I have an exam on the vikings tmr :)

Considering that there is only one English king known as "The Great" Alfred must have been special.
I wonder if Elizabeth II could be considered the Great, considering that her reign was so long. How does a head of state become "The Great" anyway?

"Oh hey what up yaaaall ITS GUTHRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUM" is the highlight of the episode

Coming from Assassin's Creed Valhalla, i love the fact that there are many events that i distinctly remember from the game that actually happened and are mentioned in this.

You can't trust a Dane

Awesome love the humor. TLK my favorite series !!

You can help save 25 million people by watch yeonmi park to save North

The kid part makes me laugh

Everything else: funny. That one line: Ayo hey what up yall its GUTHRUMM

I only understand forced vassalization cause of ck3 xD

The Last Kingdom :)

“Guess you shouldn’t’ have broken a vow sworn on holy relics… KID!”

I like this theory that guntham never actually converted to Christianity because to them pantheons alwayz grew when new better gods came along

Where's the part about Alfred the Great burning the cakes?

I see the Last Kingdom took some liberties with their narrative

Danegeld (n.) - an ancient version of “I’m going to give you 500$ to F off.”

I feel like I’m cheating watching this while watching the Last Kingdom on Netflix

The Viking Who Ruined Christmas

Thanks!

dose any one notice that they dont hav any necks?

WTF so what is danelaw !.?

I have too say Extra Credits facial expressions reached an amazing peak during the second agreement

Interesting

Thrones of Britannia sucks.

Weird Christian Gods? Why would you insult your viewers? Weren't you a Christian yourself when you were younger?

For those who watch Vikings…this is Hvitserk’s story lol

If you like this time period I recommend watching “The Last Kingdom” on Netflix

Why does Guthrum look 12 and Alfred 40

Anybody ever see the last kingdom on Netflix lol

LoL Danegeld..in the netherlands money is called geld :)

I've watched this more than ten times.

Part of Guthram's conversion came from the fact that Guthram was getting older, and did not want to continue the incessant fighting required to achieve Valhalla. He wanted peace, calm, and an easier way to heaven.

Alternate title: “How the Pagan stole Christmas”

the negotiations are hilarious honestly

The French when they heard about an insulting match: YOUR MOTHER WAS A HAMPSTER! AND YOUR FATHER SMELT OF ELDERBERRIES!

Assassins Creed Valhalla anyone?

When guthrum entered the hall with the sunglasses thoooo
