List of Famous people with last name Victorious

Eric the Victorious was a Swedish monarch as of around 970. Although there were earlier Swedish kings, he is the first Swedish king in a consecutive regnal succession, who is attested in sources independent of each other, and consequently Sweden's list of rulers usually begins with him. His son Olof Skötkonung, however, is considered the first ruler documented to definitely have been accepted both by the original Swedes around Lake Mälaren and by the Geats around Lake Vättern, which peoples were part of High Middle Ages and Late Middle Ages Sweden. Adam of Bremen reports a king named Emund Eriksson before Eric, but it is not known whether he was Eric's father, and the Norse sagas' accounts of a Björn Eriksson are considered unreliable.
