The Norman Conquest of England was remarkable.  This site has examined different aspects of the Conquest:

Historians will argue how much England was changed by 1066, and whether things were changing anyway.  Without a doubt, by 1087, William made sure he was in control of his new kingdom.

The Battle of Hastings was astonishing.  To quote Jim Bradbury, "... it changed a crown, it changed a nation, and it deserves its reputation as one of the few occasions and dates which everyone remembers." [The Battle of Hastings (Sutton, 1998) p.242]

Yet the Norman Conquest is more than just a date,
it is a awe-inspiring and central event in world history.
