I think as a best role model, I would choose the English king, Alfred the Great.

Alfred started with a few hundred men in a desperate situation and established England as a country free of Viking control.

He promoted education, even setting up schools for primary education in English.

He had books translated from Latin into English for the benefit of people who could not read Latin.

He promoted the Anglo saxon Chronicle.

He furthered trade.

He educated all his children including his daughters.

What used to thatch the roof of a house in medieval times?

In medieval times, roofs were commonly thatched using materials such as straw, reeds, or rushes. These materials were readily available and provided good insulation, helping to keep homes warm during colder months. Thatching involved layering the materials in a way that allowed rainwater to run off, preventing leaks and water damage. This traditional roofing technique was not only practical but also contributed to the rustic charm of medieval architecture.
