Where do you think the English [got] their common laws

Excuse me, but Saxons are NOT Vikings! They're Germanic.

Also, North America was "discovered" thousands of years before a few Johnny-come-lately biker-types in longboats.

Vikings and Saxons were both Germanic & old Norse is a Germanic language. Some of the earliest English common law was derived from Danelaw.

Biker types? ::rolls eyes::
