A glass ring found in a Viking grave belonging to a Swedish woman offers proof that Vikings were in direct contact with the ancient Islamic civilizations.
The ring, which is decorated with glass and not amethyst as previously assumed, has an inscription that reads ”to Allah” or “for Allah” in Arabic, writes ScienceNews.
According to the archeologists behind the discovery, it’s a well-established fact that Scandinavians traded their women in exchange of glass beads with people from Egypt and Mesopotamia as far back as 3,400 years ago -- so it’s not that unlikely to think that Vikings women might’ve taken the trip down there themselves and converted to Islam, says the researchers from Stockholm University.
According to Jeanette Varberg, director of Moesgaard Museum in Sweden, it’s a very exciting discovery. However, she says she’s not surprised that there were multicultural connections between ancient Scandinavia and the Middle East.
I think Islam is what makes many Swedes today jealous of immigrant groups. You have a culture, an identity, a history, something that brings you together. And what do we have? We have Midsummer's Eve and such silly things, said Mona Sahlin, the former Prime Minister of Sweden
The most important thing you can do for the white race is keep your own life in order. Start with yourself. You must be competent, reliable, hardworking, and, above all, happy. Do people in your life trust and respect you? What does your family think of you? Are you capable of raising children? Racial politics doesn't have to be the only factor of your life. And if you can't achieve such things for your self, then the chances are very high that you are not ready to be a political activist, either online or in real life. Because how can you make a difference for the race, for the lives of many, if you can't even make anything of your own, individual life? How can you make a real difference in society, when the greatest extent of your capacity is to be out-organized by jews on social media?
Always remember: we live in first world countries and have opportunity that most people born on this planet do not. Things aren't as good for us as they were for our parents. But billions of people in the third world would still kill to have the opportunities that you do right now. So take care of yourself! Work your ass off, every day, to build a good life for you, and for your family. Clear your mind of self destructive thoughts, and keep yourself focused on realistic goals. Work hard, but also do fun and wholesome things with real people in real life. That is very important. Nothing on the internet should ever take away from your real life.

Bullshit, the Swedish (((Government))) has been raiding historical arts and museums and literally destroying and burning everything that the Swedes have been doing for thousands of years,
literally fucking destroying everything, why isn't that in the news? it's like the Jews going to the poles to destroy the ancient artifacts there or closing off our races ancient ruins in Egypt, only to have it used as dumps by shitskins and halfbreeds

This. Do this.
The Left has no answer for why "warmongering nationalists" of different nations tend to get along better than Leftists from different nations. Its because of mutual respect. Revel in your Europeanness and in that feel free to adopt successful trends emerging from elsewhere -- but don't you dare forget the sacrifices of your ancestors that got you this far.
Then I will respect you because I judge that as being worthy of respect. I do the same here every day, working to build my family and not let my culture die out by simply living it.
There are many ways of being. Some of them are highly effective. Not all are equal. Study why your ancestors were so effective and internalize that, emulate it, then once you have mastered "the box" you have license to explore and begin thinking outside of it.

You do realize that by definition Islam is not "ancient". It is not even very old.
Muslim interaction with north European people happened for a few hundred years through various maritime raids, but only at the very end of what we consider the Viking Era.
The point of your post is very different from this, though.
As far as having pride in one's culture, Europeans SHOULD have pride in spades -- but the very self-reflection that makes such a high culture possible (entertaining the possibility of self-doubt is the gateway to scientific reasoning, after all) has been corrupted by Marxists and post-modernists into a self-destructive social cancer.
And yes, there is probably some validity to the weird idea that feminists may long for unabashedly male stereotypes after having cucked so many compliant males over the years. The totally incongruent alliance between feminists and Muslims on the Left is explainable only by some weird Freudian interpretation of events -- and that's just bizarre.
But it holds the key to the Europeans' redemption: Stop being ashamed of who and what you are. Take your culture back and be proud of it. It is an amazing heritage.

For you historically illiteratefags. Swedish vikings went up the Volga river and raided and traded with the Abbasid caliph's lands for centuries.

I mean come the fuck on we don't even have a written language and these cum guzzlers think I would know what the scribble on that dumb rock was supposed to be.

also, it was probably taken of a shitskin finger with an axe also, the vikings sailed around the entire fucking world, of course they would've had shit from all kinds of places, especially small valuables and trinkets like this

Islam isn't even more than 2,000 years old. Muhammad didn't start larping until 600. Fucking article cites 3,400 years ago.
Christopher Diaz
3400 years ago, people from Scandinavia and the middle east might've traded, but both Islam and the Viking culture are much, much younger than that (both sprouted at around 700CE). The article doesn't say how old the ring itself is, but it's more likely than not that it's some loot of a Viking raid from the 700's or a very very old family heirloom.
Landon Roberts
The Swedes should kill more muslims and steal their trinkets.
Ian Adams
Vikings were weak and overrated. They didn't make any major dent in Islamic lands.
You have to be pretty retarded to think they sailed around the entire world. They didn't get anywhere close to China or India.
You're a retard. Learn to read. It's saying that from Scandinavia to Mid East trade is at least 3400 years old.

Nords were niggers who sold their slavic, germanic and celtic cousins into slavery

So Arabs are not bad for owning White slaves because it was Whites who sold them those slaves like how Whites are not bad for taking black slaves because blacks sold them the slaves?
Makes sense.

Read the article. There is no mention of trading women or of women traveling there, it's OP's cuck fetish fanfiction. >According to the archeologists behind the discovery, it’s a well-established fact that Scandinavians traded for glass with people from Egypt and Mesopotamia as far back as 3,400 years ago -- so it’s not that unlikely to think that seafaring Vikings might’ve taken the trip down there themselves and traded with the Islamic merchants in the region, says the researchers from Stockholm University.
