Mark the statement if it is true.



A.


William the Conqueror of Normandy and Harold, Earl of Wessex, fought over who would succeed King Edward.


B.


In the Battle of Hastings, the Normans were defeated and Harold was crowned King of England on Christmas Day 1066.


C.


William and his fleet had to cross the English Channel to engage Harold's forces at Hastings.


D.


One outcome of the Norman Conquest was the decline of strong monarchs.



Answer :

The correct answer is C. William and his fleet had to cross the English Channel to engage Harold's forces at Hastings. This happened in 1066 and led to the fall of the Anglo-Saxon hegemony over the British isles. Following that battle, Normans started ruling the Isles which is why there is a huge amount of words in English language coming from Latin and Old French.

Answer:

A and C are the correct answers I just took the K12 test.

 Have a great day.
