    I stand corrected. I suppose a handful of those men would be ethnically French, I thought you meant because they spoke the French language that's what made them French....

    I wonder how a few thousands men travelling without wives could have begot six generations down the line pure vikings, but that's just me.
    Regardless, the "Normans" that invaded England came from everywhere, from Brittany to the Flanders.

    A handful ? More like roughly all of them. Notwithstanding mostly being subjects of the king of France anyway.

    Which accounts for absolutely nothing. Yes, roughly all of them were French in the truest sense of the word - I stand corrected. Just remember, speaking a certain language does not make you a part of any culture.
