Question

After the Norman Conquest of England in 1066, various local laws began to be replaced with one uniform system of law. To accomplish this, the king or queen appointed loyal followers as judges in all local areas. These judges were charged with administering the law in a uniform manner. Which English monarch began the change to this uniform legal system?

Answer 1

William the Conqueror and his successors

Step-by-step explanation:

Following the Norman conquest of England in 1066, William the Conqueror began a series of changes in England. First William rewarded several of his knights by making them the new nobles of England. These men built castles, gave land to their followers, and took the place of the Anglo-Saxons, who had hitherto dominated the country. However, William also reformed the country's system of laws. He established a uniform system of laws that should be followed by everyone and should replace several local laws.
