Ubbe's quest in Vikings is fictional as far as historical records show, Norse explorers didn't reach North America until Leif Erikson's arrival in the 11th century. Though Vikings viewers may think that the shot of a soaring eagle after Ubbe's arrival in the "New World" means he's reached the USA (or rather, the land that will eventually become the USA), he and his settlers actually arrive in Northeastern Canada. While Ivar and Hvitserk allied themselves once again with King Harald Finehair to lead a Viking raid on Wessex, Ubbe sought to fulfill a different part of Ragnar Lothbrok's legacy by adventuring across the vast ocean to the west in search of a promised "Golden Land." Following a harsh journey that included the accidental discovery of Greenland, the loss of Ubbe's stepdaughter Asa in a storm, and settlers dying from dehydration and sickness after weeks at sea without food or water, Ubbe finally reached the New World - and discovered that it was already inhabited.

And prior to leaving Kiev to return to Norway, Ivar fathered his first biological child with the Rus princess Katia.

The unstable Prince Oleg was killed by the young king-to-be, Igor, and Oleg's brother Dir took his place as the regent ruler of the Rus until Igor reaches adulthood.

Bjorn's half-brothers, Ivar the Boneless and Hvitserk, had fought on the side of the Rus during the invasion, and were left at a loose end after helping to secure a new leadership to the east.
