Which statement best describes the Vikings?

Answer
A
The Vikings preferred to attack by land rather than by ocean.
B
The Vikings helped cause the fall of the Roman Empire.
C
The Vikings built many permanent settlements in Europe.

The Vikings were known for their seamanship.

Explanation

The Vikings were skilled sailors who traveled and raided across the seas in longships, so their seamanship was central to their reputation. Choice D, “The Vikings were known for their seamanship,” is the best description. They did establish some settlements, but they are not best characterized by building many permanent settlements throughout Europe.
