My father is a geneologist. He went to scandinavia for info my mom's family. The written record splits when you go far enough back. On one side it concludes with a king Olaf I believe. On the other side the king was kidnapped by Odin for seeking to be a God. Also on this side are references to the king fathering the twins Frey/Freya.

In 1042, Saxon king Edward the Confessor returned to the throne with the aid of the English nobles. When Edward died in 1066, without an heir, his relative William, duke of Normandy, a vassal to the king of France, stepped forward and claimed the throbe of England. The English nobles ignored William's claims for the throne and appointed Harold Godwin king.\nWilliam was not satisfied. He decided to settle the score in battle and sailed to England with 10,000 men. Godwin's forces fought him at the Battle of Hastings on October 14th, 1066. After a brutal, day-long battle, William's forces were victorious. Even Godwin himself was killed in the clash. William then marched to London to be crowned king and was given the name "William the Conqueror."

My vote is for Asatru. The Vikings sacked Rome several times and had power bases in every coastal European country. They only converted to Christianity because of Christian missionaries, and an old king who allowed them to build churches on top of pagan shrines. Even after their conversion, pagan practices were not banned for several generations. If the Christians had not interfered with their beliefs, the conversion would never have happened.\n\nThey made it to the America's before that took place, and I speculate that they would have done so again if not for their conversion and consequent subjegation of the Catholic church.\n\n-SD-

The Roman Republic. That's where they got the name for the "senate" and the idea for a two house legislature. By the way, the Romans were pagans at that time.

There are quite a few facts in this book of fiction. The Catholic church definitely carried on a campaign against the old pagan folk beliefs. This was done over a period of several centuries from the time that Constantine adopted Christianity through the campaigns against witches (which continued under protestants in the Salem witch trials). The fourth and fifith centuries correspond to the time when orthodox Christianity (the Catholic church) was trying to fight both the Arians of Spain, but also the pagans of northern Europe and Germany. The number of people killed during these pogroms ishard to determine accurately.
