Intro to Unit 1 - Forging Civilization 500-1200 CE  - The Viking Raid Pages 3-7 Text Attendance. Welcome.  Intro to Unit 1 - Forging Civilization 500-1200 CE -  Note: CE stands for “ common (or current) era ”, while BCE stands for “before the common (or current) era”. These abbreviations have a shorter history than BC and AD , although they still date from at least the early 1700s. Note: The use of CE was historically motivated by the desire to avoid the implicit "Our Lord" in the abbreviation AD . Although other aspects of dating systems are based in Christian origins, AD is a direct reference to Christianity.  * Video The Vikings! - Crash Course World History 224 11 min Collect - Socials 8 Textbook - Library. 12:45pm-1pm Chapter 1 - Europe's Early Middle Ages - Review Page 2 Text - Chapter Outcomes.
