Exploiting a succession crisis after the death of the English King Edward the Confessor, William the Bastard mounted a large invasion with the aim of fully conquering England. As the Norman dukes in France vied for power and influence, across the channel, the Anglo-Saxons presented an attractive and rich target, for those who could snatch it. This legendary descendant of the Viking Rollo became one of the most prominent and powerful Norman dukes in the early 1000’s AD. William the Bastard is certainly a name that will ever be remembered in the pages of world’s history, especially for the people of England. From Conquest to Chaos: The Beginnings of The Anarchy
This ain’t no “ Anarchy in the UK” as you might know it, The Anarchy was war, death, and chaos all around. The Anarchy epoch emerged from a “classic” succession civil war, a conflict that left the nation without a ruler and thus left it to immerse itself in true chaos without law and order.
Today, we revisit one of the more interesting pages of English history, as we go back to the 1130’s AD, to the period known simply as The Anarchy. But what happens when anarchy actually happens on a greater scale? For example, when a powerful medieval nation is swept up by widespread lawlessness that cannot be stopped.
Such a world is bound to collapse under its own weight, like a building without supports, it caves in on itself. The word itself is enough to paint a stark picture of lawlessness and disorder, a picture of a world in which no rules exist – for anyone.
