" , the ruthless king of Wessex (2 episodes) "
As far as all characters on this TV show, on a ruthless scale of 1 to 10, where 1 is a bunny, and 10 is Jack the Ripper, the King of Wessex is maybe 5.
He is certainly no more ruthless than any other leader, and seems more reasonable and civilized than many.
When was King Charles promoted to Emperor? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.169.103.229 ( talk) 15:22, 11 May 2016 (UTC)
I have, at least temporarily, removed a newly-added Historical inaccuracy section. My concern is that the section gave a rather fine-grained critique of one specific event in one storyline in the series, thereby giving the impression that the rest of the series is reasonably accurate. This is not the case. Rollo was not brother of Ragnar Lothbrok. Rollo was not an ally of Ragnar Lothbrok. Rollo did not have any known children by his French wife (if she even existed). Judith was not daughter of Ælla. Neither parent given Alfred is historically accurate. Lagertha is legendary. None of these people ruled Hedeby. Ragnar is at best pseudo-historical and may be a chimera of numerous different vikings. I could go on. I think it misleading and out of proportion to only focus on the portrayal of the French actions at the siege of Paris for a historical critique of the series when there is so much wrong.

Please stop deleting my ‘historical inaccuracies’ in vikings (season 3). I saw the same section in vikings (season 5). I see no reason why such a double standard is prevailing here — Preceding unsigned comment added by Berserk Kerberos ( talk • contribs) 09:14, 5 March 2020 (UTC)
