Kings and Chieftains in the Shadow of the Danish Kings
View through CrossRef
This chapter discusses politics in the Viking Age in some parts of Scandinavia and how it was affected by the Danish kings. It looks at the situations in Sweden, Trøndelag and Vestlandet. The chapter captures a glimpse of the lives of Swedish kings Erik the Victorious, Olof Skötkonung, and Norwegian king Hakon Adalsteinfostre, among others. It also highlights that importance of the Battle of Hafrsfjord. The chapter then tackles the 1036 landmark agreement between the Norwegian king Magnus Olafsson and the Danish king Harthacnut, which led to Magnus Olafsson becoming king of Denmark in 1042. The said power shift resulted in the Viken becoming part of the Norwegian realm, greatly reducing the military power of the Danish kings and conversely increasing that of the Norwegians.
