Vikings Valhalla Laura Berlin as Emma of Normandy with Constantinople in the background
Summary Vikings: Valhalla introduced Emma of Normandy, queen of England, who’s related to Vikings’ Rollo, but the show made changes to her story. As the sequel series to Vikings, Vikings: Valhalla is set over 100 years after the events of the main series, and as such, it follows different characters in a completely different context.
Who Was The Real Life Emma Of Normandy? Emma of Normandy Was Queen Of England Through her marriages, she became the English, Danish, and Norwegian queen. What Valhalla Gets Right About Emma Of Normandy Vikings: Valhalla Wasn't Entirely Historically Accurate Just like in Valhalla , Emma kept her position as queen of England through her marriage to Canute.
What Valhalla Changes From Emma Of Normandy's True Story Vikings: Valhalla's Version Of Emma Was Different Although Vikings: Valhalla is based on historical events and real-life people, the events of the series aren’t entirely historically accurate and many of these were condensed into a short amount of time.
Emma of Normandy is one of the characters in Vikings: Valhalla who is directly connected to one of the main characters in Vikings: Rollo. In Vikings, Rollo was Ragnar’s brother, but in real life, not only is it still debated that Ragnar existed, but there’s no link between him and Rollo, who was a real person. Rollo was a Viking who went on to become the first ruler of Normandy, and through his marriage to Poppa of Bayeux, he had a son, William I Longsword.
Following Cnut's death in 1035, Harthacnut took the throne of Denmark, while in England, Emma fled to Bruges due to pressure from supporters of Harefoot, regent in England from 1035 to 1037, who took the throne in 1037 and reigned until his death in 1040. Harthacnut claimed the throne of England in 1040, bringing together the crowns of Denmark and England as his father did until his death in 1042.
