The Flemish and the Bretons fought with William against Harold.
Well after Edward the confessor died there were 3 people who thought that they should be king as he did not have any children to reign. Harold Godwinson, Harald Hardraada and William of Normandy (becomes William the Conqueror). Harold Godwinson crowned himself about 3 days after Edward the Confessor died. Then the 2 other men fought. First Harald Hardraada and Harold Godwinson (he won this battle) and it was called the Battle of Standford Bridge. Then Harold Godwinson and William of Normandy and William won. That battle was called the battle of Hastings as it was down south in Hastings. Then when William won he crowned himself on Christmas day! He then became William the Conqueror! Hope this helped! Sorry if I got some things wrong because I'm only 10! :) :)
It helped because first he went to Harold's army to fight then he got some news that William came. Harold went to London got some people and then they walked to the south and they got tired. William had luck to fight against him and a tired army.
The Bayeux Tapestry shows Halley's comet, Harold and his people seeing it with fear in their eyes. The omen may have helped William win, but I have never read that there actually was an effect on the battle, or even on the morale of Harold's army, so asserting it happened might be going a bit too far.
William the Conqueror, who took over England after the Battle of Hastings, helped to bring the system of feudalism over from the country he was from to England after he had been crowned king.

Harold of wessex's army were un organized howeveer Williams army used the shield wall which helped them win the battle
There were things like crops (plants) and obviously meat. The peasants grew crops and kept livestock. As well as this many farmers were taken to fight William at the battle of Hastings because Harold had no-one to fight as he had just fought Harald Hadrada at the battle of Stamford bridge.Hope this helped

When Edward the Confessor died, there was no direct heir to the throne and the throne was passed to Harold Godwinson. Then William claimed that Edward the confessor had promised the throne to him. So they fought at the battle of Hastings for the throne.
William duke of Normandy had the surname of longsword. he was promised the thrown when King Edward died but it went to Harold Godwin. William got support from the Pope and then invaded the country with the Battle of Hastings. hope this helped :)
Well, William would've had to do to lose the battle of hastings, such as: Not having good enough Tactics, Luck, and Resources. He was Sly, and had good Idea's, which helped alot. Hope this works for you...x--x--x love georgi walkerxx
The battle of Stamford bridge can be construed as positive and negative for Harold. The positive effect the battle would have had is that it gave the troops a boost in morale, knowing they defeated the powerful Hardrada and won a decisive battle. However the marching up and down the country in a short period of time helped lead to the defeat at the Battle of Hastings. This is due to how fatigued the troops would have been.
