The Normans that invaded England in 1066 came from Normandy in Northern France.
However, they were originally Vikings from Scandinavia.
From the eighth century Vikings terrorized continental European coastlines with raids and plundering.
The proto-Normans instead settled their conquests and cultivated land.
Over time they assimilated into medieval European society, abandoned paganism, and upheld conventional Christian norms.
