    The most ironic thing is that vikings lived in cooperative tribes, essentially communes, and were by no means capitalist.

      Wasn’t “viking” a name for profession, a type of raider essentially? It’s not an ethnicity or anything

        I believe you’re right. A more accurate statement would be that the groups whom vikings belonged to were cooperative tribes.
