War between France and England

In 1066, war broke out between England and France

Why?

In the feudal system, it was not always entirely clear who had the first right of succession.

On October 14, 1066, the English and French met at Hastings

William II won and wanted to centralize the government to gain more power himself

The Bayeux Tapestry

Het kleed van Bayeux

Dat komt door  het kleed dat is gemaakt na de slag. 

Het tapijt van Bayeux is een borduurwerk van 70 meter lang en 50 cm hoog, dat de geschiedenis uitbeeldt van de slag bij Hastings in 1066. Het tapijt is vernoemd naar de stad Bayeux in Frankrijk en werd vermoedelijk gemaakt in 1068.

Het laat zich lezen als een stripverhaal: in een groot aantal scènes worden de voorgeschiedenis en de slag zelf behandeld.
