what does this excerpt reveal about the vikings?
they were raiders and they stole from people.
they were best at fighting at sea, not on land.
their main goal was to find new places to settle.
they attacked people only when necessary.

Explanation:

The text describes Vikings landing, fighting, taking control, plundering, burning, and killing. This shows they were raiders who stole from people. The other options are not supported. There's no indication they were best at sea - fighting only (they fought on land as described), their main goal wasn't settling (they took plunder and left), and they didn't attack only when necessary (they attacked and caused destruction as described).

Answer:

They were raiders and they stole from people.
