@MultiAngryguy yes, i know i know i know the king of france had no authority over england, if you misunderstood my meaning there it was a lapse of comunication, but you must must must admit that guillaume le batard was as french as the king of france himself, nationality in the middle ages was a confusing thing because of feudality but guillaume le batard was french:-gallo-roman-frank whatever, and even though independently he conquered england as a french guy you must admit it!!!

@boss180888 ... France to become independant, so that they would no longer have to pay homage to the king of France whereas the French wanted their territory back because aslong as it remained in Englands hands England would be more powerful than France. Aquitaine had been part of England since 1153 when Henry (II) Plantagenet took control of England, throughout the Hundred years war the Gascons considered themselves to be English because they had been ruled by them for so long and thats why...

@boss180888 *Sigh* Once again you completely ignored what im trying to say. Did England become part of the kingdom of France after the Norman conquest? no. England remained a seperate country from France and as a result William the conquerer was now equal in power to the king of France but he was still the duke of Normandy which meant he was still a subject to the king of France. The reason all of the wars between England and France happened is because the English wanted their territory in...

@MultiAngryguy hey i'm giving up on trying to prove to you it was a french conquest because it would rock your world and you would get defensive before accepting the truth. saying normans weren't french is like saying burgondy or aquitaine weren't french, are you familiar with the concept of feudality? guillaume le batard was a vassal to the king of france PERIOD. he wasn't a horn helmet axe swinging viking he was a FRENCH-MODEL KNIGHT a concept he instaured in england

@boss180888 And at point 2 /facepalm you didn't read what i wrote did you? i said numbers dont matter, stop bringing up lame excuses for why the French lost Waterloo (you said Britain only won because of numbers).

[MultiAngryguy]

@boss180888 Just because they spoke French doesnt mean they were French. The objective of the Norman conquest was to capture England for Normandy not for the kingdom of France, how is this hard to understand? Oh well, i suppose the French will say anything to make it look like a French conquest.

@MultiAngryguy continuation........3-how do i know? please without being introduced to the mediterranean cultures you wouldn't have developed at all, your own scholars define that as the key point in british history.

guillaume le batard was born in FRANCE, spoke FRENCH, his culture in way of life and fighting tradition of chivalry was FRENCH, his mother was 100% FRENCH and his father also had french blood in him!!!

richard the lionheart was french too, boy you've been fooled by uk propaganda!
