Aethelred the Unready

Harold Godwinson

Son of Godwin but seemingly did not win God’s favor. Harald was a brilliant fighter and tactician and juggled enemies, and former friends, coming from the East and the South. If the Channel hadn’t been so stormy, would England have remained in Anglo hands? No man can say.

Edward the Confessor

What crimes was he confessing to? One of England’s few Saint-Kings, Edward restores some stability to England, but can never seem to get out from under the thumb of the Godwin’s.

Harthacnut

He was one tough nut to crack, but we try our best. Harthacnut spent most of his time preoccupied with Scandinavia but he would be the final viking king of England and a guy who liked to party, maybe a bit too much…

Harald Harefoot

Fast as a hare and strong as a bear, Harald was one of the last Scandinavian kings of England. He is never officially coronated and blinds his relative but seems to have been a decent ruler otherwise! **reupload because the original file was cut-off**

Cnut the Great

A tough cnut to crack, Cnut was really the only Viking king to rule England for any significant amount of time. One of the most interesting kings of the entire era whose victories and decisions would ripple through history.
