Via [livejournal.com profile] nhw, a posting by a graduate student who was appalled to find out that very few people actually know who invaded Britain from the territory of France about a thousand years ago. The wildly off answers interested me, I admit.

* The Turkish invasion of England, 907 A.D.
* The Anglo-Saxon invasion of England, 1065 A.D. (Where did they invade from?)
* The German invasion of England, 1805 A.D.
* The Greek invasion of England, 1066 A.D.
* The Russian invasion of England, 800 B.C.


The correct answer is "the Normans in 1066 A.D."
