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.

he didnt go to Normandy William came to England and Harold was on his way back from fighting the Vikings at Stamford bridge and then William beat Harold at hastings

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

William showed bravery and organisation

William the Conqueror needed to be stern. He grew up with people trying to assassinate him and late had people rebelling against him. Without his stern measure, it is unknown if he could have conquered anything at all.

After the Romans conquered Greece Hellenistic culture flooded Rome. The wealthy equestrian families usually had their sons tutored by Greek slave teachers in rhetoric, math and Homer's Iliad and Odyssey and other Greek stories. The equestrian families soon learned Greek as a second language. The Influence did not end their however. Roman playwrights where heavily influenced by the Greek counter parts such as Menander. Roman architecture was also massively impacted by Greece. Greek philosophy and science also flooded into Rome like the stoics, epicureans and the skeptics. Hellenistic religious cults also emerged and Greek deities were converted into Roman deities with traditional Roman cult names like Minerva and Mars.

The Greeks had influence the Romans in art, architecture, education, language, drama, philosophy and even religion.

Yes. He was William 1, Duke of Normandy.

When abusers see their victim gaining control they can do one of two things ... fly into a rage and perhaps harm their victim, or, they can be syrupy nice and do everything to win you back (sending you flowers; taking the blame for the abuse, etc.) Don't get suckered in! Abusers have deep-rooted psychological problems and until they go for help (few ever do) they will always victimize their mate(s). Stay strong and move on Marcy
