Shelf by nono umasy
The Norman Conquest, a pivotal event in English history, occurred in 1066 when Duke William of Normandy, later known as William the Conqueror, successfully invaded England and defeated King Harold II at the Battle of Hastings. This conquest led to significant political and social changes in England, including the establishment of Norman rule and the introduction of Norman-French culture and language into English society. It also laid the foundation for the development of the English monarchy and language, shaping the course of England's history for centuries to come.
