Duke William



Now, we know who became King of England after the Battles of Stamford Bridge and Hastings in 1066, but who do you think had the strongest claim?  Harald Hardrada, Harold Godwinson or William of Normandy?  Write one paragraph in which you state who had the best claim to be King and why.

 There were there kings who asked and wanted to be kings and there were only allowed one for it and  to me I would pick Duke William. All three of them realy wanted to be king like anyone else would.There are many reasons why I think Duke should be the king. One reason is because of the pope on his side an it helps them lead the way to the goal. Another reason is that Duke William he is noble. People thought many things about him such as having good ideas of what kings need to have been doing. Eventually, he was the conquer of England. He already has a picture in his mind about a future. They had a strong feeling he would be a good king over all the other people who want to be king as well and this was a response to why I think I would pick Duke William as a King/conquerer
