Answer:

The Vikings traveled thousands of miles across the sea from their homeland of Scandinavia where they were farmers, fishermen, seafarers and traders. Denmark had a lot of sandy soil. Some historians believe the Vikings left their homes because of over crowding. There was not enough good land for everyone to share.
