William the Conqueror destroyed houses and crops in England following his victory in the Norman Conquest of 1066 to establish control and suppress resistance. This strategy, particularly evident during the Harrying of the North in 1069-70, aimed to instill fear and deter rebellion among the English population. By devastating the land, he sought to consolidate his power and ensure the loyalty of his new subjects through a demonstration of strength. Ultimately, this brutal tactic was intended to secure Norman rule over England.
