The Norman Conquest happened in 1066 because King Edward the Confessor of England died without a clear heir, and many people wanted to be king. Duke William of Normandy believed he had the right to the throne because Edward had promised it to him. At the same time, Harold Godwinson, a powerful English noble, took the crown for himself. This led to a big battle, where William and his soldiers fought Harold and eventually took over England, changing its history forever!
