The Dragon War refers to the conflict between the dragons and the vikings of Berk. The conflict took place in How to Train Your Dragon.

Background

It is unknown how the conflict between dragons and humans began, but it is possible that 300 years before the events of the first film, a viking possibly, Bork the Bold accidentally started the war with the Dragons.[1]

During this time, there was a gathering of viking chieftains on Berk to discuss the war with the dragons. It was during this gathering that a man, Drago Bludvist, stepped forth. Bludvist claimed he could control the dragons and end the war if the chiefs bowed down and followed. Stoick and the other chiefs laughed at this until Bludvist left. The chiefs then came under attack by armored dragons that burned the hall to the ground. Only Stoick survived the attack.[2]

During this time, Stoick's wife, Valka, tried to urge both stoick and their tribe to end the war with the dragons to no avail. When dragons launched another raid, Valka then rushed into their home to protect her newborn son, Hiccup, from a dragon. However, seeing no malice in the dragon, she could not kill the dragon. Stoick then rushed into to protect both Valka and his son. Unfortunately, Valka was then taken by the dragon and many believed she had eaten and killed by the dragons.[2] Stoick then searched for her for days but was forced to give it up.[3]

Outcome

Following the victory over the Red Death, Stoick allowed the dragons to move in with them on Berk. During this time, Hiccup received a metal leg from Gobber. With Toothless at his side, Hiccup and the other teens rode their dragons.[4] They then started the Dragon Training Academy to train both riders and dragons.[5] News of Hiccup's victory reached the other tribes such as the Outcasts[6] and the Berserkers[7].
