> Modern "britain" was colonized and natives were almost wiped out!
Yeah, but not by Vikings. Saxons, and before them Celts did a lot of ethnic cleansing. By contrast the people who we think of as conquerors (Romans, Vikings, Normans) subjugated, rather than replaced the native population.

More ! should get your point across.
It takes some pretty impressive mental gymastics to rationalize holding people today accountable for something that happened hundreds or thousands of years ago, as though the people today were somehow responsible. Wouldn't working together to share the space be a much more reasonable and sustainable solution?
But no, let's tell people who had nothing to do with historical events to get out and create more conflict. Sure.
