What If the Vikings grew their settlements over the first five centuries here. What If they ultimately grew their presence to 30,000 or more in warmer areas like New York, Massachusetts, or even the Carolinas?

Viking sagas and archeological findings fully support Norse exploration of North America, or Vinland, hundreds of years before Christopher Columbus.
