The Battle Of Hastings happened in the year 1066 on the date 14 October.
Pope Alexander II supported William of Normandy at the Battle of Hastings in 1066 primarily to reinforce the legitimacy of William's claim to the English throne, which was seen as a means to establish a more stable and Christianized rule in England. The Pope believed that William's victory would help to strengthen the Church's influence in England and promote reform efforts. Additionally, the support aligned with broader political interests in consolidating power among Christian rulers in Europe. This endorsement was symbolized by the papal banner sent to William, which served as both a blessing and a rallying point for his forces.
