William the Congueror was the Very Influential Duke of Normandy in the 11th Century. When He invaded England in 1066, he simply used his power that he had developed throughout France to assemble an army to fight the English. It's important to remember that he didn't need to fight the entire English Army, instead a small percentage of it. Northern England contained most of the soldiers at that point in time, so the only real threat he had to deal with was the Army of Wessex, which, although being well armed and well trained, was not nearly enough of a force to withstand the Army The Duke of Normandy William was able to bring.
