Historia
King and Conqueror, set in the 11th century, follows the destinies of two men who were once allies but are now on a collision course due to circumstances beyond their control. Harold of Wessex, a respected leader, finds himself unexpectedly crowned King of England after the death of his brother Edward. Meanwhile, William of Normandy, who had been promised the throne by Edward in exchange for military aid, sees this as a breach of contract. Driven by personal obsession and ambition, William invades England to claim what he believes is rightfully his. Harold, now duty-bound to defend his kingdom, prepares for war against his former ally. The stage is set for the pivotal Battle of Hastings in 1066, where the fate of England hangs in the balance.
