No problem, my dear descendant.
It was my duty to obtain the crown of England from my distant cousin king Edward (later canonised as 'the confessor'), however, when my dear cousin passed away, a lowly Saxon thegn by the name of Harold Godwinson usurped MY throne whilst I was still in Normandy!
So I karbashed him with my crack cavalry and split the land and church possessions between my Norman, Breton, Flemish, and Frankish bros.
P.s. I also scorched those unruly northerners hence why the north is still a shit hole.
That is indeed correct, still to this day, the anglo-Scandinavian's are at the forefront of division. The south has flourished with Norman influence.
Your children, on the other hand, should have made the transition of power easier. It would have saved much trouble. I personally would have liked Robert to take power. As the past Anglo-Saxon monarchs have done
