Holy shit, I bet you learned history with the dumb inaccurate show....
The Normans got Normandy in 911 (26 years after Paris) following their defeat at the Siege of Chartres in 911 (yes, they received Normandy after a defeat).

Since you seem to use THAT show to learn history, let me tell you a fun fact that may avoid you to ridicule yourself again in a further debate: Rollo wasn't Ragnar's brother, they didnt even live in the same era

>Franks: 200 men at arms
>Vikings: 700 ships, 40,000 men
>Decisive French Victory

LOL

>>423274
>200 vs 40k
Sounds realistic
