That's what Viking literally translates to.

There were some quasi racial elements, the idea of "races of man" is mentioned in the Sagas and such but it wasn't really the same. More tribal, less about skin tone but also the Vikings didn't really have contact with other skin tones unless they were one of the groups raiding the Mediterranean or Vinland which was rare.

Still proto-fascists balls deep in might makes right with a chattel slave economy though.
