Ask an Icelander who he is, he may well tell you with a straight face that he is the son of a Viking. " But the Viking are long gone, " you may say He will probably look you in the eye, laugh maybe, and tell you that no, uiey are still here. These days, they just dress differently, prefer fishing to fighting, and have much better ships. If there is one thing Icelanders are proud of, it is their past. The people of Iceland are indeed direct descendants of the Vikings. The island was settled by the Vikings late in the 9’ century, and it has had no outside influence since. One reason why Icelanders love their past is that there is plenty to be proud of. The original settlers of this wild island were undoubtedly a strong and hardworking group.
In 930 AD, a group of men gathered at Thingvellir and founded their own government, which is today the world’s oldest parliamentary system. While the rest of Europe was suffering, Leif Eriksson was exploring North America and the great storytellers of Iceland were writing down the epic poems, which are to this day the foundation of Iceland’s history. Perhaps the most extraordinary thing about Iceland’s past, however, is that it is still alive in the language, which has been unchanged for 1,000 years. It is so pure that if you hand an Icelander a copy of saga written 1,000 years ago, he will be able to rad every word. And what about the Viking cooking? Well, it’s still here, too, and in the month of February you can find it in almost every restaurant. This goer back to and old feast the Vikings used to hold to celebrate the last weeks of winter. One of the dishes is not for those who are not brave enough. It is a shark that has been rotting in the ground for four months.
All the following belong to the Viking’s achievement EXCEPT________.

A、setting up he first parliamentary system
