William the Conqueror commissioned the Domesday Book, a comprehensive survey of England, to assess the lands and resources of the country. The Domesday Book was completed in 1086 and provided detailed information on the wealth and ownership of property in England at that time.
The Domesday survey was carried out by officials sent by William the Conqueror after the Norman Conquest of England in 1066. The survey was completed in 1086 and served as a comprehensive record of land ownership and resources in England at the time.
Villagers who refused to take part in the Domesday survey risked harsh consequences such as fines, confiscation of property, or even imprisonment. The survey was a comprehensive inventory commissioned by William the Conqueror in 1085 to assess landownership and wealth in England. Participation was mandatory under the threat of severe penalties.
In 1066 William Duke of Normandy defeated Anglo-Saxon King Harold 11, at the Battle of Hastings and became King of England. For King William to pay for the mercenary army he hired to defend his kingdom; he needed a record of all financial and military resources available to him. He commissioned a survey of all the land and people in it, including even the farm animals. He wanted to know who owned what, how much it was worth and how much was owed to the King in tax, rents and military service.
William carried out the survey to gather information on the needs and preferences of the target audience. He likely used various research methods such as interviews, questionnaires, and data analysis to collect data and draw insights from the survey results. This information would help him make informed decisions and tailor his services/products to better meet the needs of his audience.
