Background
This timeline is based in the year of 1066. But first, let's go back to Russia, when Harald Hardrade is there. In his room, he is thinking about god. He realises that he doesn't really want to follow a religion which had been imposed on his people, he wants to follow the true word of god. And what is the true word of god? The Teachings of the Orthodox Church... In this timeline he converts to Orthodox Christianity, at a crucial moment in time. But that's the first prerequisite, the first big PoD is the Battle of Stamford Bridge. So, what if a Norwegian scout saw the English Army approaching and warned the Vikings? They would've been prepared and they could've won the battle. Well, this is what this timeline is about.

History
1066 - Harald wins the battle of Stamford Bridge and continues on to conquer Northern England and to fortify, waiting for William the Conqueror to strike. William the Conqueror conquers Southern England, and prepares to strike Harald next year.
