Nope! Give it time. We are hardly there yet, perhaps!

Surely you can't be thinking of the Norman invasion of England in 1066?

Got a bit of a kink in my back, down and to the left. Actually, it's a spot that I pulled years ago. It hurt for several days, but has mostly been fine since. Don't know what set it off today.

Outta here Ping!

A quick study of the main language groups in Europe may
provide a sure fire hint as to who I am talking about!

Er... who's left I should say...


are we talking William vs Harold?

We are talking about things like Indo European
language groups, or the lack thereof....

No, no, no.
I must have mislead you people some how. The third
group is contemporaneous with the Vikings, and the Muslims!

The Magyars attacked all over Europe
over the course of their expansion.
In fact they were worrisome in the
success they were achieving. The number
I need is not the one given. If some one
gets the right number before we get there,
then I'll declare a winner, and to that person
will go great applause,

Sort of egregia cum laude....

Well I doubt it was the Visigoths or the Goths..

How about either the Vandals or the Tartars or maybe the Franks?

The Franks still exist today, I'm a descendant of the Franks...
