Harald Bluetooth

About Harald Bluetooth

Harald Bluetooth (died 986) was a pivotal 10th-century Scandinavian ruler, officially recognized by the Pantheon project with an HPI Rank of #662, indicating significant global cultural impact. As the King of Denmark and Norway, his main historical achievement was the unification of the feuding Danish tribes and the subsequent Christianization of the Danes, laying the groundwork for the unified Danish state. This foundational political and religious act secured his high historical ranking.

Despite this structural importance, Harald Bluetooth receives relatively modest modern internet attention, logging 421K Wikipedia views in 2025. This places his current digital footprint significantly lower than many less historically influential contemporaries. For instance, contemporary politician Xi Jinping (#719 importance) garners over nine times his traffic at 4.0M views, illustrating a notable gap between historical weight and modern digital visibility. Furthermore, his attention is projected to decline, with a 14.0% year-over-year drop in views and a sharp -21% momentum in the first three quarters of 2025, suggesting his legacy is fading faster online than his historical rank suggests.
