The year 1066 CE is one of the largest turning points in British history, with most people today having heard of the Battle of Hastings. The year had begun with the death of Edward the Confessor, a man who would be one of the last Anglo-Saxon kings. In the end, the course of the kingdom’s history would shift as William the Bastard became William the Conqueror, the First Norman King of England.

Dude, watching this at work makes me feel more secure with my decision of not wanting to surround myself with low quality people especially at work. Yes I embrace my solitude and I like genuine connections but I don’t need people like this so I’m ok with being on my own 😊 Also your voice is very nice.

When William the Comqueror invaded England, did he take second sons and non-noble men because such men had limited opportunities in France? Or were most of his soldiers men who were alreadt established in France and who wanted to add English land to their holdings? I read a romantic novel that featured a blacksmith who joined William's invasion force and received a title and estate in retun for his participation. Could such an increase in status due to accompanying William the Conqueror even possible?

And because of the Normans the aristocracy in England spoke French for about 100 years, and is the reason for the change in accent that we associate with "posh" English (or what Americans just call "British"), like "dance" is pronounced "d(ah)ns".
