In 1066, William, Duke of Normandy invaded England, and took the English crown - so he had control over both England and parts of France.
The French King demanded that the English King swear fealty to him (he technically had a right to ask for this because of the land controlled in France, but it was very insulting to ask a King to do this).
This old tension was the background for the 100 years war - and why England felt that it had a right to rule France.

England was not owned by any single entity for 400 years, but it came under various forms of foreign rule. Notably, it was controlled by the Normans following the 1066 conquest by William the Conqueror, and later, it experienced periods of foreign influence during the Hundred Years' War with France. Additionally, there were influences from the Vikings and, in a different context, English rule was challenged by the Scots and the Irish.
