Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the timeline of Viking raids and settlements.
The Viking Age began in 793 AD at Lindisfarne, followed by settlement in the north and east (the Danelaw) in the 9th century.
Establishing the correct chronological sequence is necessary to eliminate incorrect historical periods.
2
Evaluate the role of King Alfred the Great.
Alfred defeated the Vikings and established a boundary (the Danelaw) rather than ruling all of England as a unified Danish state.
This clarifies the distinction between Saxon resistance and the eventual Danish unification.
3
Determine the significance of the year 1016.
In 1016, King Cnut consolidated power to become the first Danish king of all England.
This identifies the specific milestone requested by the question.
