Okay, so, I request a small bit of education here.
As I understand, the Norman people started in, well, Normandy. I'm probably wrong in that, as they probably came from somewhere else and then just named that land after themselves.
What I also understand, though, is that the Normans had a penchant for not staying in Normandy.
England is the most noticeable example, but I understand there were some Normans who took over Southern Italy, and some parts of the Middle East.
So can somebody tell me what's up with the Normans? Are they just people filled with Wanderlust? Where exactly all did they conquer?
