Scandinavia was sparely populated(30k people living in the whole of Scandinavia under the height of the roman empire 1+million in Rome) and the people living there had no reason to start building stone structures due to trees being literally everywhere.
Before the "modern" era most places here was uninhabitable due to no water and swamps being everywhere, you could only live near shorelines without dying from malaria and other diseases. I won't mention how shitty the soil is here and the animals that used to plague our crops before we hunted them to extinction.


And to be completely honest I would rather live in a big wooden house made back then rather in a small roman villa or apartment with 20 people.

hey americans used log cabins until the early 1900s who are we to judge?

All archaeological and documentary evidence indicates that the Vinland colony was voluntarily abandoned because it was economically unviable. Its purpose as an exploratory mission was to secure supplies of timber and diverse foodstuffs for the Scandinavian settlements in Greenland. When they figured out that their ancestral homelands of Norway and Denmark were actually closer than North America, with superior existing infrastructure for the transport of such goods, the Vinland expedition was abandoned. There is also no evidence of interaction with the native peoples (likely the Dorset tribes) at the primary settlement of L'anse aux meadows. The encounter described in the sagas, if it occurred at all, probably happened during a scavenging mission far to the west. The Greenland settlements regularly traded with the natives for animal products and trinkets, so this sort of incident wouldn't have been unusual or unsettling for the Vikings.

Looks our ancient house, scandinavians are Japanese bros? They also eat raw fish like us.

I don't know this kind of house.

Any anyways, we stopped living in mud huts in the medieval, when the Germans taught us how to put logs sideways. Before that we only knew to keep them standing.

At least they didn't have to endure teocratic and oligarchic societies where the people lived beyond misery while the rich lived like gods...

That literally puts us at Africa tier though if we couldn't figure out to build with lying logs ourselves. Seems to me that's a pretty logical development.

I think it was fair use of memes.

It wasn't. Only like 2% of the population had any slaves, most whites were still dirt poor wageslaves anyway

This 2bh. As late as 16th, 17th century average Swedish people probably ate more food than their continental counterparts(except for bad years then all of us starved to death) because we didn't have the same huge aristocracy taking so much from the farmers.
