On 14 October 1066 at "The Battle of Hastings," William the Bastard Duke of Normandy overcame personal demons and the Anglo-Saxon militia to become William I, the first Norman King of England... one of the most feared and admired leaders of all time; however, that's just half of the story. Matilda Duchess of Flanders was the other part of the world's first power couple. Together William and Matilda transformed English and European history.
