These professors were accused of being communist sympathizers. This resulted in their dismissal from the University of Washington. One of the biggest reasons why this was a big deal was due to the beginning of the Cold War and the start of the second Red Scare.

After World War II, the US and Soviet Union emerged as global superpower. As communism spread throughout Eastern Europe, US citizens were scared that this system would spread to the US. In order to prevent this from happening, institutions all over the country took action against supposed communists, including firing them from their jobs.

Romans came from the Italian pensinsula and came to Britain in the early first century. It was a gradual process and they slowly started conquering the different parts of the British isles during that time. 

Vikings came from the Northern parts of Europe and they started conquering the British isles in later periods. 

Both came and wanted to conquer the lands, while Romans were 'established' conquerors and started governing these areas soon by spreading their culture etc. The Vikings on the other hand had pillaing more in mind and did more of that and did not govern that much from the beginning.
