** If you really get into it, Ragnar might've even still had more kids. Lagertha wasn't necessarily opposed to sharing him with someone. But Aslaug's choice to flaunt her name, servants and wealth ''on top of'' boasting about her pregnancy was a disrespect too far. If they'd stayed together and someone less high-status had come along, they might've revisited the idea.

** If you really get into it, Ragnar might've even still had more kids. Lagertha wasn't necessarily opposed to sharing him with someone. But Aslaug's choice to stroll into Lagertha's hometown and flaunt her name, servants and wealth ''on top of'' boasting about how Lagertha's husband had impregnated her pregnancy was a disrespect too far. If they'd stayed together and someone less high-status had come along, they might've revisited the idea.

*DarkAndTroubledPast: We never truly learn much about Ragnar and Rollo's upbringing, but their terrible brotherly dynamic suggests they did not grow up in a loving household.

* TragicMistake: There's an argument to be made that most of the series' troubles flow from Ragnar choosing to divorce Lagertha so he could try having kids with Aslaug. While this did give him the legendary sons he wanted, it led to him being miserable, stuck with a woman he didn't love, alienated from the woman he did love, and losing the trust of the son he already had. He ultimately wasn't a very present father, and his bad marriage also created much grief for his sons, as they felt forced to take sides and ended up fighting each other ''for years'' because of it. If Ragnar had stayed with Lagertha they might've just had the one son, but he would've had a happy marriage, a son who trusted him, and could've still accomplished everything he wanted as an adventurer. But of course if he had, we would not have Literature/RagnarLodbrokAndHisSons.

* JerkassHasAPoint: Though Ivar is evil from season 5B and onwards, his quest to avenge [[spoiler:Aslaug]] is completely justified given Lagertha killed her after she surrendered with her only condition being that she would be let go unharmed and that she then would order [[spoiler:her sons]] not to take revenge. Also, in Norse culture, [[FamilyHonor they would have been bound by honor to take revenge]], even if they did not want it. Willingly giving up on revenge, as some of them do, would make them lose a lot of respect. Lagertha also never makes any attempt to make peace by offering compensation. And at the end of the day, [[spoiler:Aslaug was still Ivar's mother and one of the few persons who genuinely loved him in his whole life; Ivar's brothers weren't nowhere as doted on as he was (with Sigurd in particular being very resentful about this).]]

After Ragnar fails to maneuver Athelstan into getting sacrificed at Uppsala, their friendship becomes increasingly close and emotional.
