My username, "angleterre," means "England" in French. It's a bit of a
paradox to have my username as the name of the country I love in the language of their longstanding rival, but England's history has long been intertwined with France. In fact, the current
English language has arisen from a mixture of
Old English and
French, due to the
Norman conquest of 1066.
William of Normandy, the duke of a region in northern France, led the last successful conquest of the English land in this year. William the Conqueror wasn't the first English king, but he is considered to be one of the most influential figures in England's past.
