I'm curious, but what's the basis for this timeline, exactly?
 

PeriodDramas.com - The Period-Drama Timeline

A celebration of movies and TV series in the period-drama genre, based around a continuous historical timeline showing when the various stories are set.

Found this after I put my question in the hub, don't know if you're missing anything though except maybe the two Vikings TV shows

Thanks! Those Vikings shows are a bit too fictionalised to place on a real-world timeline.

Tbf Ragnar's life is just largely fictionalised but you can say that about a lot of history. It'd also hardly the only one on this list that treats god(s) like they're real

Valhalla especially had a lot of good stuff about Cnut's reign and Hardrada
