Fucking Edward man.

Best case scenario all four claimants would've divided England up and that shitty island would've stayed as a backwater.

if you don't want an Anglo-Saxon as king of the Anglo-Saxons, you're basically a cuck or have loyalties to other than the land of the Angles.

>normy tier
William le conqueror

>fedora tier
Harold Godwinson champion of muh Anglo-Saxon heritage

>patrician
William I of England, rightfully appointed by Edward the Confessor

William and the Normans represented an inevitable tide of change sweeping across Europe and it is Anglo-Saxon Britain's fault that they couldn't adapt quickly enough. Harold was an appeasecuck politician, William was a decisive ruler.

Harald really overextended himself, I'm not sure what he was doing, maybe Tostig convinced him he would find a lot of supporters in England.
