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 are we talking William vs Harold? |

are we talking William vs Harold? We are talking about things like Indo European language groups, or the lack thereof.... |

are we talking William vs Harold? The Kurgans? "The Kurgan people took their language with them, giving rise to a secondary homeland of the Celtic, Italic, Germanic, Balto-Slavic, Greek and other European branches, while conquests in the south and east produced the various Indo-European languages of India, Persia and Asia Minor. By 5,000 years ago, most pre-existing languages were erased and various independent Indo-European language groups and cultures had started to develop." |

No, no, no. I must have mislead you people some how. The third group is contemporaneous with the Vikings, and the Muslims! edit: I apologize for my lack of communication skills.... |

But what was invaded? The Magyars "The Magyars, Hungarian ancestors, began raiding into western Europe in 862 against the outposts of the Frankish kingdom in the Danube Valley." |

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, edit: 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... Savoir-Faire is everywhere! The T1 Trust, T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, America's First HST |
