Norman Conquest to Magna Carta: Early Medieval Developments

The period following the Norman Conquest in 1066 saw several transformative events that shaped medieval England. The Domesday Book survey of 1086 documented England's wealth, land, and livestock, creating an unprecedented record of medieval resources. The Crusades, beginning in 1095, initiated significant cultural exchange between Christians and Muslims, introducing various commodities and innovations to England.

Highlight: The Crusades brought Arabic numerals, medical knowledge, and new vocabulary to England, including words like 'mattress', 'algebra', and 'admiral'.

Definition: The Crusades were religious wars between Christians and Muslims for control of the Holy Land.

The murder of Thomas Becket in 1170 highlighted the power struggle between Church and Crown. The signing of the Magna Carta in 1215 by King John marked a pivotal moment in English constitutional history.

Quote: "The Magna Carta was signed by King John - Now he had to obey the law."

Vocabulary: Magna Carta - A fundamental document establishing basic rights and limiting royal power.

This app has made me feel so much more confident in my exam prep, not only through boosting my own self confidence through the features that allow you to connect with others and feel less alone, but also through the way the app itself is centred around making you feel better. It is easy to navigate, fun to use, and helpful to anyone struggling in absolutely any way.
