It all started back in 1066 A.D. when Edward the Confessor died without an heir. Harold Godwinson was going to take over, but I wouldn't allow it. I let him tire his army out by fighting Harald of Norway. Then, at the Battle of Hastings, I invaded England and won. On Christmas Day, I was crowned King.
How did you hold your power?
I had a Doomsday book made, you might know it as a Census. It let me keep track of everything in my kingdom so I could tax efficiently and control castle building.
Do you think you are somebody to be remembered?
Yes, I believe I will be found to be very significant to history. My organization of the army was important, but the Doomsday book was what allowed me to keep a watchful eye over my kingdom. My idea will go down in history.
