Why did William of Normandy and Harold godwinson go to battle?
he didnt William and harald Hadraada invaded New answer: According to the interpretation of the Tapestry of Bayeux, Harald was was sent by Edward, King of England, to go to Normandy, presumably to tell William, Duke of Normandy, that England would be his i.e. William's. Harald shipwrecked during his crossing of the channel and William had to rescue him from a rival. William then asked Harald to swear an oath that William would become King at the death of Edward. Harald was then repatriated to his homeland, but reneged on his oath when Edward died. Harald claimed himself King infuriating William. William then took what he believed was rightfully his by invading England. Near Hastings in 1066, Williams Norma ns defeated Haralds Anglo-Saxons. Harald died after being hit with an arrow in his eye. Thus England fell under Norman control and the course of history was changed.
