    key events of the conquest

    The Battle of Hastings is probably the most famous battle to have been fought on British soil. But why did it ever happen? If it wasn't for a feud between two brothers, William would almost certainly have lost at Battle.

  • Key events of the conquest

    In 1016, Cnut of Denmark invaded England. He eradicated all opposition in a pogrom in Winter 1017, and ruled thereafter with a combination of Danes and newly promoted English Earls who profited from the Danish Conquest. Edward (the Confessor) fled to his father-in-law in Normandy. He finally regained the throne in 1042.
