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.
If I had to vote then I would probably vote for William of Normandy because he is English and he would make a great King of England. He was the first one to say that he wanted to be the King of England, but he was already the King of Normandy. That is why he was named William of Normandy. Even the pope promised him that he will be the King. The good thing was since he wanted to be the King so he won. After he won his name changed to being King William.
