The Battle of Hastings


When your new teacher of English literature asks you: When was the Battle of Hastings? Who won it? And, you don’t know the answer or you just don’t remember it… With just 7:27 minutes you can remember what you saw in high school. I loved the video because is not only very clear but is very well explained and give the details in order to understand what happened that October 14, 1066.
One of the things I love the most from the video was that the story was told from the place where the battle happened, it's a feeling I can’t explain but it made me feel as if you were living the moment, not in the middle of the battle of course, but all the feelings that a war brings whit it, as a vibe that takes you to that day.
The Battle of Hastings occurred on 14 October 1066 during the Norman conquest of England , between the Norman-French army of Duke William of Normandy and the English army under King Harold II. This battle is seen as the point at which William gained control of England, becoming its first Norman ruler as King William I.
