Best Answer

He conquered Wales as Earl Of Wessex, subdued areas of Scotland and in killing Harald Hadrada he ended the Viking Age. He probably also designed the taxation system adopted by the Normans later on. He was a very powerful figure for many years before he was crowned and was called a Subregulus or Co-ruler in the time of Edward the Confessor. He probably funded Westminster Abbey and other churches in southern England.
