and ....

William was more properly ready and this was harolds second fight of the day. some of harolds best fighters had died in the battle of the stamford bridge

Reasons why William won:

-luck, the arrow which hit Harold, harvest time so some of the fyrd went home, storm which forced Harold into the hands of William, the fake retreats, arrival of hadraada, William survived the blow, wind blowing the opposite way accross the cannel,

-harolds weaknesses, untrained fyrd, lack of control, no calvery/archers, rused into battle, failed to defend coast, tactically unflexible,

-Williams strengths, brave, professional force, well equiped, tactically aware,

-Tostig and hadraada, the battle at stamford bridge led Harold to becoming too confident, harolds army was tired, Harold had to leave the south ungarded, Harold lost a 1/3 of his housecarls

I take it you mean William the First, also known as The Conqueror. He was born in 1027 and ruled England from 1066 until his death in 1087.

The Grosvenor Square is not actually named after a specific person, but bears the name of the Grosvenor family, which can be traced back to at least 1585. The name itself derives from "Gilbert Le Gros Veneur" ,which was the name of a man from one of the Norman French families, who aided William the Conqueror. Translated directly from french "Le Gros Veneur" means "The Great Hunter", so The Grosvenor Square is in point of fact 'The Great Hunter Square'.

A coastal province in northwestern France, bordering on the North Sea. In WW II-terms is is sometimes used as the collective name for the D-Day invasion by the Allied forces and of the subsequent fighting in that region.

William expected to be richer and more powerful than just from being Duke of Normandy, and the subservience of the people.

This is what William's Rep (if he had one) could of said :

William has the best claim to the throne

because Edward promised it to him. When Edward was a boy

in 1016, King Cnut invaded England and Edward ran away to

Normandy for safety. Edward stayed in Normandy until he became

King of England in 1042. It was important, at that time, for Edward

to protect his throne from attack and rebellion. Edward turned to

William for help. He sent Norman soldiers to live in England and protect

Edward. William's army is strong and could protect England no matter what the circumstances are. In return, Edward promised the English throne. Harold of

Wessex also said that he should become King of England when

Edward died.

He wasn’t interested in “worth” but to control the island and become king.

Fact #1: Mont-Saint-Michel was a stronghold of Romano-Breton culture, but it was ransacked by the French in the 6th or 7th century. Fact #2: In the 8th century, Mont Saint Michel was called Mont Tomb, due to the fact that St. Michel appeared to St. Aubert, and he told St. Aubert to build a church, but Auburt didn't listen so St. Michel burned a hole in his head with his finger. Fact #3: Mont-Saint-Michel was originally an abbey, but in the French Revolution, the monks fled and the abbey was closed and changed into a prison. Fact #4: In 1067, after William of Normandy was crowned, he got a small island west of Cornwall which he modeled after Mont-Saint-Michel and called it St Michael's mount of Penzance. Fact #5: In the Hundred Years' war, the English tried to destroy Mont-Saint-Michel but couldn't because it was fortified. PS. Use wikipedia. It saves time.

England was a wealthy settled and successful kingdom with established laws and a complex system of taxation. Normandy was a dukedom and William was faced with constant intrigue including threats to his rule, position and life. In order to successfully mount an invasion of England, William required the support of the Norman ruling class i.e. the knights and their followers. He enlisted this support with the promise of gifting them new land and treasures in England. This in turn ensured that Norman rule and Norman laws would be imposed from the outset. William was also determined to wipe out all traces of Anglo-Saxon culture and in doing so, further reduce the risk of prolonged organised resistance
