They all said there points and people were all on different sides. The 3 leading men , Harold Godwinson, Harald Hardrada and William of Normandy were all politically fighting for there space as king. However the Earl of Essex, Harold Godwinson had claimed place and was now the king of England.
2. His new royal name was Harold 2nd he made a English army and prepared for any ambushes from Harald Hardrada or William of Normandy, of course Harald Hardrada striked first in Yorkshire with many ships floating behind him. Harald Hardrada was killed on Stamfird bridge, which is now called The Battle of Stamford Bridge.

5. Seeing as they where fighting on a hill Williams army started heading back down the hill back to where they started but the English thought that they where retreating so they broke there line of defence and started to charge at Williams army however as soon as they did so his army turned round and the battle was begining, the English were losing by alot of men.
6. Next William ordered his calvary to start charging down the hill most of the English army now were getting trampled on, some of Williams army died but William didnt stop then.
