History
Early history
Before the year 1000 AD, Vinland was populated by a native population of what was referred to as "Skraelings".[1]
Discovery by vikings
Original timeline: In the year 1000, an expedition of Vikings from Greenland, led by Leif Eriksson, arrived on Vinland's shores. The group did some preliminary exploration before they left due to Eriksson's conversion to Christianity, believing the conflict with the natives wasn't worth it.[1]
