Harald Hardrada, the Norwegian king, ruled as king of Norway from 1047 until his death in 1066. He briefly claimed the title of king of England after attempting to seize the throne in 1066, but he was defeated at the Battle of Stamford Bridge. So, he was king once in Norway and claimed kingship in England without successful rule.
