Harold godwinson marched 250 miles
Not really. After he was crowned king Harrald Hardrada (a Viking competitor for the throne) invaded England but Harold Godwinson's army fought them off. While Harold's army was in the north William invaded the south. Harold's army marched south and fought the Normans near Hastings. The English were tired and not as well equipped as the Normans who won the battle, killed Harold and took over England. Harold didn't want to fight but had no choice.
Most men were killed in the battle of Stamford bridge .the rest were aloud to return
Harold Harada died because he was in war so what would you expect
Yes, mainly because Harold Godwinson had to fight against William - Right after fighting with Harold Hadraada. By then their army was exhausted.
In England, Harold means army commander. Army, weald power. Derivative of Hereweald. Famous Bearers: King Harold II of England who was killed in the Battle of Hastings in 1066. In Scandinavia, Harold means army ruler.
a viking who invaded Britain in 1066 to take the throne from Harold Godwinson and become king, but Harold Godwinson and his army defeated Harold Hardrada and his army and the battle of Stamford bridge. hope this helps :)
Harold was very unlucky in The Battle of Hastings because his army was poorly disciplined and they were very tired because they had just been fighting in the North. You can tell that his army were badly disciplined because whenever William's army pretended to retreat, Harold's army followed, meaning it was easy for them to be killed. Harold however, was a good leader just due to the failure of his army he was not able to use them as best as he could.
There is much legend about how King Harold heard about William's army approaching. Basically, he was told through the grapevine to expect the coming of the army.
