Harald Hardraaada should be king because, his relatives have all been king for the past 28 years, also because he is wealthy and powerful!!! Harald Hardraaada also wanted to be king because, he was as good as any other king in the 11th century, he was a power and rich landowner and popular with most of the richer people in England. A man said that Land, money, power and the ability to keep other people on your side make a good king because, they bring stability and peace to the population. ( to Harald)
