The great production of Netflix that changed the perspective of the viewers, thus taking its complete acceptance, thanks to the fact that it relates better than ‘Game of Thrones‘ the reality of what the Middle Ages were like, showing a cruder and more realistic side of what would have been those times.
This series allowed us to see and understand, during its six seasons, that the Middle Ages really could have been much more bloody, heartbreaking and dark, than what the HBO production on thrones and dragons or the same books by the renowned George R.R. Martin showed us.
‘Vikings’, made its debut with its first season in 2013, being in 2020 the year in which it had its last season, showing the history of the ancient Scandinavian empire, where violence, bloodlessness and, without a doubt, greed reigned.
The story centers on Kattegat, a small Scandinavian town in the middle of the 8th century, where the Viking Ragnar Lothbrok is a young farmer and family man who is frustrated by the policies of Earl Haraldson, the Earl of the place.
The 89 episodes in total available on the Netflix streaming platform portray a story based on the Viking Ragnar Lodbrok, with a universe full of Norse mythology, fights, conquests, revolutionary advances and reputation.
If you really like this time of the history, the Vikings and Norse mythology, this series will be perfect for you, since although some do not agree, a large majority insist that it is better than the saga of thrones, since that gives us a more realistic experience.
