Why was William the conqueror ridiculed by the barons?

William the Conqueror faced ridicule from the barons primarily due to his abrupt transition from Duke of Normandy to King of England after his successful invasion in 1066. Many barons viewed him as an outsider and resented his imposition of Norman customs and governance over the Anglo-Saxon nobility. Additionally, his heavy taxation and the redistribution of land to his Norman followers alienated many of the existing English nobility, leading to discontent and mockery. This tension ultimately contributed to ongoing resistance against his rule.

Was William the Conqueror good at controlling his barons?

The barons were the leaders of the troops that fought for him and won him the Kingdom of England at the battle of Hastings (his fellow Normans). He rewarded their loyalty by giving them baronies (replacing the conquered Saxon barons). As the new barons were seen by the English as invaders (they brought new ways and were generally harsh in suppressing the people), they supported each other and were loyal to King William because they needed his support and because they were grateful to him for their new positions. Thus his barons gave him firm control of his new realm.
