Chapter 260: The Kingdom of Denmark
In fact, in addition to the Kingdom of Norway, Sweden and the Kingdom of Sami, there is also a Gnose state in Scandinavia that occupies the southern states of Scandinavia.
The country was known as the Kingdom of Denmark, which occupied the southernmost Skåna Chiefdom of Scandinavia and the island of Zealand.
In addition to this, the Kingdom of Denmark also occupied the Great Chiefdom of Schleswig and the Great Chiefdom of Holstein, for which the Kingdom of Denmark was at war with the Kingdom of East Francia (Germanic Kingdom) on more than one occasion.
The king of the Kingdom of Denmark came from the "snake-eyed" Sigdel of the Knutlin family. Knutrin, in fact, historically speaking, the Nordic countries are not yet united.
It may be because of Gao Yang Yajun's father Qin Jianguo and Gao Yang Yajun, this may be the butterfly effect, but the big pattern has not changed.
For example, the Carolingian family that occupied Western Europe and northern Italy, the Kingdom of Bulgaria, which occupied the Bulgarian region, and the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire, did not change significantly.
At present, the only countries that changed the course of time were the Chinese Empire, Lizhou, and the Kingdom of Poland that occupied Eastern Europe, and the four countries that occupied Scandinavia in Northern Europe.
In fact, the Kingdom of Norway, the Swedish states, and the Kingdom of Denmark, the three Gnostic states, were all influenced to a greater or lesser extent by the Chinese Empire.
After all, they arrived at the Huaxia Empire by boat very quickly, and they often corresponded with the Huaxia Empire, so they might be influenced by the Huaxia Empire!
What's more, in addition to the Huaxia Empire, the great chieftains of Pomerania, which were originally chiefdoms, and the great chieftains of Poland have all been combined into kingdoms, so they should naturally have the idea of becoming kingdoms.
After all, becoming a king means that he is the biggest lord in the entire region, which is quite tempting for them.
It's a pity that although Norway and Denmark have already called themselves kingdoms, in fact, they are at most the same as the Sámi Kingdom, just a union of chiefdoms, but their alliance of chiefdoms is more stable than the alliance of the Swedish states, after all, most of the armies of the Sámi Kingdom, the Kingdom of Denmark and the Kingdom of Norway are in the hands of the king, and the big chiefdoms in their countries are also in their own hands.
But even so, it is impossible for them to learn from the Chinese Empire to change the chiefdom to a county, and the big chiefdom to a county, after all, their rights are different from the rights of the Chinese Empire.
If nothing else, look at their neighbor across the sea from the sea, the Kingdom of Pomerania, although it is already a kingdom in name, but the big and small chiefdoms under its command are still so disobedient.
In fact, the chieftains of the small chieftains and the chieftains of the big chieftains in the Kingdom of Pomerania did not hold the position of chieftain, and the king of Pomerania gave them official positions, such as county orders, county guards, etc., but those people still called themselves chieftains.
This is similar to a secession, they show that they cater to the king, but in private they still fight their own people, and even their own people fight their own people, their own people swallow their own people, and so on.
Among the four forces in Scandinavia, the Sámi Kingdom and the Danish Kingdom have done a good job and can suppress people.
The kingdom of Sami is because most of the land is owned by King Beyvi. Koladat was defeated, so no one dared to divide it, because they did not have this prestige.
And the Kingdom of Denmark is because of the King "Snake-Eyed" Sigdel. After all, Cnutlin is insidious, and the king of the Kingdom of Denmark is called "Snake Eyes", which is enough to show how moral he is.
In fact, among the kingdoms of Norway, the Swedish states, the Sámi and the kingdoms of Denmark, the Kingdom of Norway has the best character.
King Sigdel of Denmark. Cnutlin was different, after he unified the Danish states, he went crazy to provoke right and wrong, such as starting a war with the East Frankish kingdom (Germanic kingdom), invading the West Frankish kingdom (French kingdom), plundering the post-Uumeyed dynasty, etc., all in order to consume the powerful chieftains in the country.
Although most of the chieftains came back alive, they were more or less wounded, and if the booty was not enough, King Sigdel of Denmark. Cnutlin would find an excuse to punish them.
After all, after these people returned from the war, there were heavy casualties. Cnutlin can punish this group of people with impunity.
Although these practices were shameful, they were very effective, and they were used by King Sigdel of the Kingdom of Denmark. After several large-scale wars in Knutlin, they not only made a feud with the East Frankish kingdom (Germanic kingdom), but also made their rule more secure.
Sigdel. Knutlin just wanted to make a feud with the East Frankish kingdom (Germanic kingdom), so that the chieftains who had merit and did not find a chance to punish him would continue to fight against the East Francian kingdom (Germanic kingdom) at that time.
However, the core of the Danish kingdom is still in Jutland, and Jutland is tightly held in the hands of the Norse people of Denmark.
The Norse people of the Kingdom of Denmark were very seafaring, and they often traveled south to the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire to exchange amber and flint for grain and other utensils of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire.
They tend to be both merchants and thieves in most cases, and they like to go to sea to rob in the summer, and then they are severely beaten by the first emperor of the Chinese Empire in that year.
In 793 A.D., Norse pirates living in Denmark attacked the island of Lindisfarne in England, the island of Great Britain. Since then, Norse pirates living in the Danish region have been invading the English region of Great Britain on an increasing scale.
In other words, the Kingdom of Denmark mainly attacked the English region that invaded the island of Great Britain, while the Kingdom of Norway mainly invaded the Kingdom of Scotland, which invaded the island of Great Britain.
A few years earlier, in the year 871 A.D., the Norse pirates from Denmark had conquered the Danish king Sigdel. Under Cnutlin's personal attack, they actually captured London in the English region of Great Britain.
Last year, in the year 878, King Alfred the Great of England and King Sigdel of Denmark. Cnutlin made peace, and England was divided equally, and the Norse settlers of the Kingdom of Denmark established the legendary "Danish Quarter" in the northeast of England.
The funniest is Sigdel of the Kingdom of Denmark. King Knutlin was still interested in Chinese culture, and he often sent people to the Chinese Empire to buy books, and the officials and merchants of the Chinese Empire, under the arrangement of the Holy Son of Heaven Gao Yang Yajun, they frantically sold Confucian books to the Danish king Sigdel. Knutrin.
The most terrifying thing is that Gao Yang Yajun also conspired with Yin Lankang of Jingzhao Mansion in the Kingdom of Poland to send a group of students from the Confucian Academy to the Kingdom of Denmark to preach.
The Kingdom of Denmark also has a better relationship with the Chinese Empire among the Norse, but there will still be some small chiefdoms in the Kingdom of Denmark who like to invade the Chinese Empire. Read the latest chapters, stay tuned
