Discover how this civilization was able to overcome the odds for so long, and examine the evidence about what happened to cause its final and mysterious collapse. Including Viking poetry, Inuit folktales and thousands upon thousands of walrus.

this is the kind of documentary and talent that should be shown on the History channel, not the garbage that's show all day and night

I have trained in Greenland as U.S. Marine on 4 separate occasions. It is a beautiful and haunting place.

The idea of being all alone on Greenland surrounded by dark ice and sea is truly horrifying.

I am from Iceland and noticed that a lot of the pictures shown are in deed from Iceland. In Iceland we still speak the language the viking spoke when they were sailing to North America and Greenland. We can easily read the books and the books were all written in Iceland. We look at Eric the Red and Thorfinnur Karlsefni as Icelanders :) Thanks for this interesting passage

I am from Limerick in Ireland . Limerick was founded in 922ad by a Norwegian Viking named Thormador Helgasson . He led an immense war fleet with around five thousand warriors .The Vikings ruled Limerick and itâs surroundings for about 50 years until the native Irish under king Brian Boru defeated them . There are still signs and Viking names here .

This was a masterpiece. I literary spent the rest of the day after finishing this just thinking about it. At the end I generally wanted to applaud the story telling here. Nothing short of amazing.

I really don't understand what the 984 people could have disliked about this video, so they felt like marking the "thumb down"? I watched it twice in a row, and it made me travel to those faraway times and lands. It is a highly professional and captivating documentary, thank you for all the work on it @Fall of Civilizations.

I'm a massive documentary buff [i binge watch a lot of documentaries, especially whilst i'm crocheting] and this is By far, the best series of documentaries, I've seen to date! Please keep up the great work and i look forward to seeing more of your content!

It's inevitable that in a show named "Fall of civilizations" I always end with this melancholy in my spirit. But it's a so sweet melancholy - and so a first class lesson in History that I can't stop loving your work. Congrats on the quality of your work, Paul.

Mr Cooper, started watching this noon and still watching. I will watch them all because I have to. These are very enjoyable, your voice, research and attention to detail and feeling. Ive lived in Greenland, Newfoundland, Alaska and several very cold places and now for 23 yrs in Montana in the Rockies. These places are truly very soulful places and wild as they are quietly inspirational. I do write, and these series are a great escape from my focus to sweep me away and travel back in time like I love to do on the map. Wonderful work. Thank you.

I love how he explains all possible theories and discusses the evidence for each.

I've studied this subject a fair amount, and these seem the most reasonable conclusions to me. Well done!

When Eric the Red named Greenland he was engaging in a proud human tradition that would be passed down through the centuries, eventually giving us what we call "clickbait" today.
