The Historical Impact of William the Conqueror: An Alternate Timeline
William the Conqueror represents a pivotal figure in British history, having brought about the unification of the Seven Kingdoms through his successful invasion in 1066. Yet, this historical moment is often overshadowed by the fantastical elements of popular culture, such as dragons in George R. R. Martin's works, a reminder that history can sometimes lack the dramatic flair of fiction. The Battle of Hastings, fought on October 14, 1066, is a defining moment that forever changed the landscape of England, leading to the establishment of Norman rule.
