- TriviaFrom all countries visited during season 8, the ones with one recognizable language all feature a song about the language, i.e. Spanish for Spain, English for the UK, and so on. Countries being excepted from this tend to share their spoken languages with neighboring countries. The only exception to this is Denmark, which has its own spoken language in the form of Danish, but instead features a song about Vikings.
- GoofsAccording to the song about a Viking chief discovering the Americas, the other Vikings didn't believe his stories, with Columbus many centuries later wondering if the story might be true after all and taking credit for the discovery. In truth, the Vikings did try to settle in North America, but finally their colony was given up. Since their discovery wasn't written down in historical records, it was forgotten and Columbus never learned of it. Columbus wasn't even trying to discover the Americas, since he didn't know they existed. Instead, he hoped to travel to Asia westwards.
