william the conquer was the first king of england
William The Conquer of Normandy invaded England in 1066. At this time Normandy was a country north of France. He had churches, castles & towers built in the Norman style of his homeland. As time passed Normandy became, and remains, a part of France.
He was known as William "the Bastard" (because he was illegitimate) the Duke of Normandy. His father was a tanner but he was adopted by the previous duke. The Normans were "northmen" from Norway who had conquered this part of northern France a century before. Over that time they had stopped speaking Norse and began speaking French.
William was born in Normandy, now part of northern France.
no
After the Polish campaign of 1939, the Germans attacked France, Netherlands and Belgium.
He and his army sailed to England from France and when he was loosing the battle he feined retreat (pretended he was running) and then turned and killed them.
He was a part of the 1799 coup against the lawful government of France called the Directory.
When William invaded England and became its king he was also the Duke of Normandy. Normandy is, and was, part of France and as duke he was, in theory, a servant of the King of France. Integrating England and Normandy would either mean England was part of Normandy and therefore part of France, or Normandy was part of England, which would not have gone down well with the King of France who, in theory, own it.
It was easier to conquer than Spain yet slightly more difficult than France. The perfect place to lead.
