    THE WARS TO START ALL WARS

    Did you know that on this day in 793 the Kingdom of Northumbria in the UK sees uninvited guests arrive on Lindisfarne, an island off of Englandicon's northeast coast.

    What these 'Northmen' do there, including destroying the abbey and killing its monks, will jolt Europe and earn the Vikings a fierce reputation for the ages. This attack was said to be the catalyst that started all wars on English soil!!
