En raison d'une série de déclencheurs sociopolitiques, les Vikings ont surgi de leurs foyers du nord en Scandinavie et ont déferlé sur tous les royaumes d'Europe — au sud, à l'est, à l'ouest et au nord. Maîtrisant la navigation des océans et dominant les voies fluviales, ces féroces Hommes du Nord ont embarqué sur leurs rapides drakkars et ont inauguré un tout nouveau chapitre de l'histoire de l'Europe.

Beaucoup les croyaient invincibles, et ils maintinrent sous leur emprise de nombreuses nations chrétiennes en difficulté.

"Le Front populaire a changé concrètement la vie des gens. Pas de grands théâtres comme sous la Révolution française, pas de grands moments susceptibles de grandes fresques sous le pinceau d'un David, mais des petites choses. Des petites choses qui permettent à Jean Renoir ou à Fernand Léger de mettre en scène ou montrer les congés payés. C'est-à-dire des gens qui partent à bicyclette, en tandem et qui pour la première fois de leur vie découvrent la mer". Michel Onfray.

Wash was getting seriously tired of upper management trying to butt into his personal life. He didn't have a problem with his work-life balance… that they could prove anyway. So when they send in a new temp to assist the research floor, he's determined to ignore them. Except, they just happened to send the sweetest temp known to all species, who plies him with sweets and pretty smiles, and for some reason, that temp won't take the hint that he doesn't need help. He seems sincere enough. There shouldn't be a reason not to explore things a little, as long as upper management didn't find out.
