From Norman Conquest to Tudor Dynasty

The period from the Norman Conquest to the rise of the Tudor dynasty saw significant political and social changes in England, shaping the nation's future.

The Battle of Hastings

In 1066, Harold, the last Anglo-Saxon king, faced a two-front war. After defeating Viking invaders in the north, he was forced to confront a Norman invasion on the south coast led by William, Duke of Normandy.

Highlight: On October 14, 1066, William the Conqueror defeated the Anglo-Saxons at the Battle of Hastings, killing Harold and ending Anglo-Saxon rule in England.

Magna Carta

In 1215, King John was forced to sign the Magna Carta at Runnymede near London, following a rebellion by the barons.

Definition: The Magna Carta was a crucial document that limited the monarch's power and established that the king was subject to the law, not above it.

This charter set out how power and decisions would be shared between the monarch and the nobility, reducing the absolute power of future kings and queens.

The Black Death

The Black Death, a devastating plague, reached England in 1348.

Highlight: This was the worst plague in English history, killing nearly half of the population.

The Peasants' Revolt

In 1381, the Peasants' Revolt broke out. Serfs, who were peasants bound to the soil, rebelled for:

More rights
Better living conditions
Higher wages

The revolt was partly a consequence of the labor shortage caused by the Black Death.

Vocabulary: Serfs were peasants in feudal society who were tied to the land they worked on and subject to the will of their lord.

The War of the Roses

From 1455 to 1485, England was embroiled in a civil war known as the War of the Roses. This conflict was a dynastic struggle between two branches of the Plantagenet royal family:

The House of York (symbolized by a white rose)
The House of Lancaster (symbolized by a red rose)

Example: The conflict culminated in the Battle of Bosworth Field in 1485, where Henry Tudor defeated Richard III of York.

This victory marked the end of the War of the Roses and the beginning of the Tudor dynasty, with Henry VII becoming the first Tudor king.

Celtic and Roman Britain

The history of Britain was profoundly shaped by successive waves of invaders, each bringing new cultural elements that contributed to the formation of the nation we know today. This period of invasions and cultural mixing laid the groundwork for the development of the English language and British identity.

Celtic Britain

Around 1000 BCE, the Celts spread across Europe, including the British Isles. The Celtic peoples in Britain were primarily divided into three main groups:

The Gauls in northern France
The Britons in Wales and Cornwall
The Gaels in Ireland and Scotland

These groups spoke related Celtic languages that predated English by many centuries.

Highlight: The Celtic people of Britain practiced Druidism, a religion that revered nature and held the sun god as its most important deity.

Roman Invasion

In 43 CE, under Emperor Claudius, the Romans successfully conquered Britain, following earlier attempts by Julius Caesar.

Example: To defend their new province of Britannia, the Romans constructed Hadrian's Wall, a massive fortification stretching across northern England.

The Roman occupation brought significant changes to Britain:

Introduction of urban planning with the construction of towns, roads, villas, and aqueducts
Spread of Latin language
Introduction of Christianity

End of Roman Occupation and Anglo-Saxon England

The Roman legions withdrew from Britain in 410 CE, marking the end of Roman rule. This vacuum was soon filled by new invaders from Germanic tribes:

Angles
Saxons
Jutes

These groups spoke dialects that would eventually evolve into Old English.

Vocabulary: The Anglo-Saxon Heptarchy refers to the period between 660-800 CE when Anglo-Saxon England was divided into seven kingdoms: Kent, Northumbria, East Anglia, Mercia, Essex, Wessex, and Sussex.

Viking Raids

Towards the end of the 8th century, Viking raids began to plague the British Isles.

Quote: "In 793 Viking raiders attacked the monastery of Lindisfarne," marking the beginning of the Viking Age in Britain.
