What you'll learn

Each question helps you build key knowledge and skills.

  • 1William's victory at Hastings had several causes, including Harold's tired army after fighting the Battle of Stamford Bridge and William's use of cavalry and archers.
  • 2The feudal system gave William control over England by tying barons and knights to him through oaths of loyalty, in exchange for land known as fiefs.
  • 3Magna Carta was caused by King John's heavy taxation, his losses in war with France, and conflict with the Church, and its consequence was a lasting principle that the king was not above the law.
  • 4The Black Death caused a severe labour shortage, which led to peasants demanding higher wages, contributing to unrest such as the Peasants' Revolt of 1381.
