The term Viking is used to refer to the Scandinavian explorers, warriors, merchants, and pirates who raided, traded, and settled in wide areas of Europe and the North Atlantic islands. The period from the earliest recorded raids in Britain in the 780s until the Norman Conquest of England in 1066 is commonly known as the Viking Age. In the early AD 1000s, the Saxon king Aethelred The Unready paid Viking raiders to stop their attacks. This money was called Danegeld. However, in 1013 Sweyn Forkbeard, King of Denmark, invaded England leaving his son Cnut king of England and part of the Viking empire.
