Go to any historian and ask if the Normans/Vikings had more of an impact on the world today then the Romans.
The Vikings set up the idea US Court system. BECAUSE of the Norman control over england... a new culture and language was brought into the island.
And Europe, Africa, and Asia... all lost Latin influnce. I speak Latin... if I was to go to Spain, or France... I wouldn't know what the hell they were talking about... but if I was to go to Italy... I would understand nearly every single word.

Indeed, go ask any historian and they will tell you Rome had a far more impact on the world in general then the Vikings. |
