  • The War for the North was preceded by attacks from viking people from Scandinavia. The Romans initially believed that the Scandinavians were attempting to start a settlement on Britannia; Britannia being the only province they were attacking. However, the Vikings left with riches and weapons which they took back to their Kingdom in what is OTL small parts of Norway, Sweden and Denmark. Here the Scandinavians began translating the latin texts into their native languages, mostly through the use of people captured in raids on the border Rome had with the Scnadinavians on the Albis (Elbe) River. Thereafter the Scandinavians began to increase their strength after many mineral reserves were found in their territory. The Scandinavians has started out a small people but began to incorporate many neighbor tribes into their empire, usually for slave labor in mines. As these minerals began to be turned into weapons the Scandinavians planned to attack the Roman Empire. At this same time, Emperor Jacobus was assuring the growth of new naval bases in cities in Britannia which had been attacked by the Vikings. The largest of these was in Eboracum (York). The Scandinavian leadership elected a King to their military who eventually led them to control most of the Mare Suebicum (Baltic Sea). King Aethelfred of Scandinavia was native to OTL Denmark but his ruthless tactics and terrorism of the populace of that region made him feared and powerful. His army only moved into Rome after his death in 999 (246 AD) and under the leadership of his son King Aethelgrif who began invasion in 1013 (260 AD) after securing a hold on the Mare Suebicum.
