After the death of William the Conqueror in 1087, his empire was divided between his two sons. William Rufus, his second son, became King of England, while Robert Curthose, the eldest, received the Duchy of Normandy. William Rufus's reign was marked by conflict with the nobility and the church, and he was ultimately killed in a hunting accident in 1100, leading to the ascension of his brother, Henry I. This transition further solidified the power struggles between the English throne and the Norman nobility.
