Changes

Ethelred the Unready(Elthelred II)(?-1016 AD) was an English King. Most of his reign he was preoccupied with fighting off repeated Viking raids. Ethelred ordered [[St. Brice's Day Massacre]] which triggered an invasion of [[England]] by [[Denmark]].

Sweyn Forkbeard (Sweyn I)(959-1014 AD) was king of [[Denmark]], part of [[Norway]], and briefly king of England. Initially king of Denmark and parts of Normway, Swyen engaged in repeated raids of the [[England|English]] coast in response to

[[St. Brice's Day Massacre]] in which many Danes including his sister were killed. Sweyn later invaded England, but only ruled England for a few weeks before his death.
