I remember seeing a video on YouTube that stated that the events of Germanic cosmology were based on real things; the Aesir were the warlike Indo-European invaders who entered Scandinavia before civilization, and the Vanir were the native, agricultural, non Indo-Europeans; the two fought and eventually merged, forming the early version of modern Germanic peoples, who eventually spread to much of Europe. This also, I guess, would imply that the gods of the ancient Germanic paganism religion were based on a dynasty of Vikings or something who actually existed thousands of years ago; I believe I may have briefly heard of such a thing once.

What do you folks think?

Yeah true. All new culture or beliefs or at least most of them are based on older ones mainly from Mesopotamia. All myths.
