Ok, I just finished it after 11 hours of gameplay. I hate these ridiculously long missions.
You can check the Objectives tab in the game, and it will show you what objectives you have finished, and then compare it to the list that OP provided above, and see what you are missing. Thanks @TheWyandotte
The last mission was actually to build a settlement on the Isle of Man. It is the tiny island between mainland England and Ireland. If in Doubt, put a couple of villagers on a Transport, and go build a longhouse on every tiny island, plus build longhouses inside every enemy base you destroyed.
Here is the location of the Isle of Man: https://i.imgur.com/XVgFWDv.jpeg
Once you finish the 50 missions, then you can go to your Warrior Hall and challenge the Viking raiders, so that you can finally destroy that pesky orange enemy base in the east (Jomsborg).

Thanks! I am on 48/50 right now and I'm 6:30:00 game time into this campaign. Major oof.
I am having trouble finding these two:
-The Tale of Hrorek of Rorestad
2) Captured Dorestad (Found this one in the Netherlands area)
-Hrolfr Kraki's Saga
1) Found the Skofnung, the sword of Hrolfr Kraki (Found it on small island East side of "Denmark", could be considered Odense)
Once I realized we were playing on a map of the UK, partial Ireland and northern Europe, the tasks and locations started to make more sense.
Also, the trading also is bugged and does not work on Standard difficulty for me either.
