Yes, the Lindisfarne monks were not best pleased at being but to the sword.
Some were put to the sword some were drowned some were taken prisoner and others were chased away.
Yes, I dare say. The Vikings were lawless pirates. There was a deal of rape and pillage too.
The Danes, who were not all pirates but farmers, settled much of Scotland and England after a good deal of fighting. The effects on the British isles are still observable today - in the language, place names and the DNA of Northern inhabitants.
Northern European tribes settled all over Europe; the Normans conquered part of France, England and Wales - and parts of modern Russia, Italy and Sicily. And sailed to America!
