Answer:

In Medieval Europe, the Anglo-Saxons and the Normans contested for control in England, while the Capetians in France gained both territory and governmental control.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is the Normans. The Norman conquest of England was led by William the Conqueror between 1066 and 1071 C.E.

William the Conqueror defeated King Harold II at the Battle of Hastings and after this conquest he replaced the Anglo-Saxon elite and redistributed the land to his fellow Norman lords, marking also the beginning of feudalism in England.
