Trivia[]
- As of September 2020, this is the lowest rated episode of the series.
- Llamas are originally from South America and there is no way they could be in Medieval Ukraine, yet four of them are seen in the market in Kiev.
- The legal documents Oleg presents Ivar are written using Latin letters instead of Greek, Glagoltic, or Cyrillic letters.
