  • England and France in the Middle Ages
    England in the Middle Ages Germanic Invasion In the early fifth century, the Romans had to give up their provinces on the British Isles. Here the Romans had influenced the original Celtic* population in many ways including the development of towns and the spreading of Christianity. But all the Roman armies were needed to defend the continental empire* against Germanic tribes from Northern Europe who were being pushed south by the Huns* or migrating south in search of more fertile 5 lands and a warmer climate. (See chapter on the Migration Period.) In the course of this migration, some Germanic tribes also moved west and settled in England which was no longer protected by the Romans. Possibly, some of these invaders had even been invited: Hengist* and Horsa*, chieftains* of Anglo and Saxon tribes from the continent, helped a local king to fight against his enemies. But they did not leave. Instead, they invited more Angles and Saxons to follow them. Other chieftains followed this 10 example, establishing Germanic kingdoms throughout the major part of England. In this process of Anglo-Saxon settlement, the Celtic people were gradually driven back to the edges of the British Isles. Since their Christianisa- tion in the 6th and 7th century, the Angles and Saxons shared at least the same religious background with the Celts (The Celts had already converted to Christianity in the 4th and 5th century). But all in all the Celtic culture re- mained undisturbed only in hilly areas difficult to conquer such as Wales in the west or Scotland in the north.

  • William the Conqueror (William I)
    William the Conqueror (William I) House of Normandy Reign: 25th December 1066 – 9th September 1087 William was crowned king after his victory at the Battle of Hastings. During his reign, many castles and keeps were built to defend England, including the White Tower of the Tower of London. He also ordered the Domesday Book to be compiled which was a survey of all the land owned in the country, its value and what resources it had. visit twinkl.com William II (William Rufus) House of Normandy Reign: 26th September 1087 – 2nd August 1100 William II, son of William the Conqueror, was known as William Rufus due to the red hair he had as a child. As he was his father’s favourite, he was chosen to inherit England while his elder brother was given Normandy to rule. He was seen as a wise ruler and a strong military leader. William died after being shot with an arrow while out hunting. visit twinkl.com Henry I (Henry Beauclerc) House of Normandy Reign: 5th August 1100 – 1st December 1135 Henry, William the Conqueror’s youngest son, seized the throne after William Rufus’ death. He was seen as a harsh but effective ruler, manipulating many of the nobles into supporting him and keeping the country in peace. His only surviving son, William, died in a shipwreck and so he named his daughter, Matilda, as his heir. visit twinkl.com Stephen (Stephen of Blois) House of Blois Reign: 22nd December 1135 – 25th October 1154 After Henry I’s death, Stephen invaded England and had himself crowned instead of Henry’s daughter, Matilda.

  • Appendix for “The Feudal Revolution and Europe's Rise: Political
    Appendix for “The Feudal Revolution and Europe’s Rise: Political Divergence of the Christian West and the Muslim World before 1500 CE” August 1, 2012 1 Feudalism and Political Stability To formalize the intuition presented in Section 3.3 using a simple framework, suppose that a perfectly myopic, risk-neutral sovereign imperfectly controls a polity that creates output of size one each period. Denote by γ the amount of land controlled by the military regardless of the actions of the sovereign (this can be interpreted as the percentage of the entire polity controlled by the military). Suppose that there are N perfectly myopic, risk-neutral members of the military (where N is sufficiently large) and that γ is evenly distributed between the members of this class. We consider the parameter value γ exogenously given. A value of γ = 0 corresponds to a perfectly absolutist sovereign (who uses mamluks or mercenaries to staff his military) whereas higher values of γ denote more feudal arrangements. Note that our assumption of perfectly myopic agents allows us to abstract from the potentially important issue of how the sovereign compensates the military (i.e., iqta’ rents versus land grants).1 In addition, we abstract from other important issues in order to focus on the sovereign’s desire to prevent a successful revolt. We do so in order to highlight one mechanism that we believe contributes to the observed increase in ruler duration. The order of play in the game is as follows: after observing γ the sovereign moves first and decides whether to keep the entire amount of output he controls to himself or whether to divide it equally between himself and the military.

By 1070 the Norman conquest of England was complete. In 1085 the Domesday Survey was begun and all England was recorded so William knew exactly what his new kingdom contained. William introduced the Continental system of feudalism; by the Oath of Salisbury of 1086 all landlords swore allegiance to William, thus establishing the precedent that a vassal's loyalty to the king overrode his fealty to his immediate lord. During a campaign against King Philip I of France, William fell from a horse and was fatally injured. William was the illegitimate son of Robert I, duke of Normandy and Arletta, a tanner's daughter. He is sometimes called "William the Bastard".

  • Family Lines from Companions of the Conqueror
    Companions of the Conqueror and the Conqueror 1 Those Companions of William the Conqueror From Whom Ralph Edward Griswold and Madge Elaine Turner Are Descended and Their Descents from The Conqueror Himself 18 May 2002 Note: This is a working document. The lines were copied quickly out of the Griswold-Turner data base and have not yet been retraced. They have cer- tainly not been proved by the accepted sources. This is a massive project that is done in pieces, and when one piece is done it is necessary to put it aside for a while before gaining the energy and enthusiasm to continue. It will be a working document for some time to come. This document also does not contain all the descents through the Turner or Newton Lines 2 Many men (women are not mentioned) accompanied William the Conqueror on his invasion of England. Many men and women have claimed to be descended from one or more of the= Only a few of these persons are documented; they were the leaders and colleagues of William of Normandy who were of sufficient note to have been recorded. Various sources for the names of “companions” (those who were immediate associates and were rewarded with land and responsibility in England) exist. Not all of them have been consulted for this document. New material is in preparation by reputable scholars that will aid researchers in this task. For the present we have used a list from J. R. Planché. The Conqueror and His Companions. Somerset Herald. London: Tinsley Brothers, 1874.. The persons listed here are not the complete list but constitute a subset from which either Ralph Edward Griswold or Madge Elaine Turner (or both) are descended).
