This unit is designed to allow students to investigate the Norman invasion and build upon the source skills that students began to develop in the introductory module. The first three units looks at why the Romans, Saxons, Vikings and the Normans have invaded Britain. From a geographical point of view Britain has always been a rich country because of our temperate climate. This allows farmers to produce up to three crops per year, unlike our European counterparts. This makes Britain a rich prize for any War Lord. It is important to stress that British society was multicultural by 1066 as emphased by the place names activity.
