Improved to Good Article status by Tintor2 ( talk). Nominated by Gus1001 ( talk) at 16:05, 6 July 2023 (UTC).

My name is Tintor2 and I approve of this nomination :) If there are more ideas I'd suggest "Did you know Thorfinn was based on both the real Thorfinn as well as Leif Erikson in regards to the search for Vinland?" or "Did you know Thorfinn marries a woman named Gudrid who is based on the real Thorfinn's wife?"

@ Sammi Brie: Thanks for the ping. According to this interview with the creator, Olaf was a king who lost position to become a slave but later became a king again: "Thorfinn was inspired by the King of Norway Olaf Tryggvason, who lost his position as a king and became a slave, but managed to reacquire kingship." This is the most direct quote from the creator of Thorfinn "TV Anime 「VINLAND SAGA」SEASON 2 PROJECT MOVIE 特別インタビュー 原作:幸村誠". Twin Engine. In case we need a more accessible one, we have this

Just googling Olaf plus slave sent to research about his life https://thehistorianshut.com/2019/07/28/according-to-tradition-king-olaf-i-of-norway-was-enslaved-as-a-child/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tintor2 ( talk • contribs) 01:14, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
@ Vaticidalprophet: Can I make an alternate and more common knowledge DYK then rather than comment on the Olaf then?
How about? "Thorfinn's journey to Vinland in the Vinland Saga manga was based on were based on the author's anxieties during the Cold War and September 11 attacks as the protagonist wishes to live together peacefully in a more peaceful land?". [1]
Or
"Did you know Thorfinn from Vinland Saga was based on the historical early Vinland explorer Thorfinn Karlsefni as little information is known about his early years?". [2]"
