Ragnar Lodbrok
The warriors invading Northern England in 1066 were the Normans, lead by King Harold's brother, Tostig, and Harald Hardrada. They defeated the local forces, but Harold marched north and killed both, securing victory.
William of Normandy invaded England in 1066
Normans in the south and vikings in the north
he invaded little villages in France to train his men
It was Harald Hardrada's army to attack England first! :)
The Vikings first raided an English abbey, Lindisfarne in 793. In 865, the Great Heathen Army attacked East Anglia (England). After that invasion failed, they attacked England once again in 1066, but were defeated at the battle of Stamford Bridge. The vikings attack England again during the Reign of Canute the Great Again in 1066, the Normans invaded and conquered England. The Vikings could not defeat Paris but the King was so impressed that he gave me land and soon raped them.
The Normans were the descendants of the vikings; King Harald III, however, was a viking. In 1066 he (and the norwegian army) invaded England before the Norman conquest started. In the Battle of Stamford Bridge Harald lost against the English army under Harold Godwinson. The Normans were led by William the Conqueror, who defeated King Harold in the Battle of Hastings a little later. This marked the beginning of Norman-controlled England under King William I (William the Conqueror).
Harald Godwinson was King of England in 1066 from January 5th until he was killed at the battle of Hastings on 14th October 1066 by the army of William Duke of Normandy.
On Monday 25th December 1066, William the Duke of Normandy overthrew the Anglo-Saxon's army (With the help of his army) and became the new king
William the Conqueror was Duke William, a Norman duke living in Normandy. The Normans were Vikings who had invaded and settled the peninsular of Normandy in what is now France. William was aggrieved when he heard that Harold Godwinson, an English Saxon earl, had claimed the English throne when the previous king died because he believed it had been promised to him (William). So he invaded England and sorted the problem out. He overcame Harold's army at the Battle of Hastings and occupied the whole country. He was crowned king of England in London and divided the land between his followers.
Harold hardrada was a Norwegian king who fancied being king of England. He invaded, and had some success in the north. In September 1066 the then king of England (Harold II) defeated him in the north. The king's army was much weakened by the battle, but had to rush back to southern England to face William of Normandy. William won the battle of Hastings and he became William I of England.
