William of Normandy, also known as William the Conqueror, is primarily known for his conquest of England in 1066. After defeating King Harold II at the Battle of Hastings, he became the first Norman king of England. While he established control over England and parts of Wales, his conquests did not extend to other countries in a significant manner. His reign focused on consolidating power and influence within England rather than expanding into additional territories.
William killed Harold and then became king
England did not take over the six counties. Northern Ireland was formed in 1922.
He didn't want anything FOR the people of England, he wanted something FROM the people of England. The idea was to have as much land and power a possible, more land means more money and money means power. William wasn't interested in the people, only to have his friends and family take over most over the country to provide him with money and men to fight for him.
He disposessed most of the Anglo-Saxon nobles and landowners and put his own Breton nobles in their place.
