In 1066 the last Anglo-Saxon king was killed in battle, and England came under the rule of French-speaking kings. French became the language of the courts of law, while Latin was used by religious scholars.

The use of Latin shows that language in Britain was somewhat influenced from when the Romans invaded.

Government

Norman feudalism was different from the Anglo-Saxon system in one important way - King William owned all of the land. William could now decide who to lease the land to.

The 1066 Norman conquest brought a new set of Norman and French churchmen to power; some adopted and embraced aspects of the former Anglo-Saxon religious system, while others introduced practices from Normandy.
