Cevap

The Normans initially conquered Wales but later lost some territory, while they fought on the Scottish border without successfully invading Scotland.
The correct answer accurately reflects that the Norman influence in Wales was fluctuating (initial conquest followed by Welsh recovery) and that their presence in Scotland was limited to border skirmishes without a full invasion.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Evaluate Norman expansion into Wales.
The Normans did initially conquer Wales, but the Welsh gradually won back some of their territory over time.
Mastery of the specific territorial outcomes mentioned in the Life in the UK handbook is required to distinguish between total and partial conquest.
2
Evaluate Norman expansion into Scotland.
There were frequent battles on the border, and the Normans took some land there, but they never successfully invaded the country of Scotland itself.
This distinguishes the Norman Conquest of England from their more limited impact on the northern kingdom.
3
Compare these facts against the provided options.
The correct description must account for the partial success in Wales and the lack of invasion in Scotland.
Accurate historical analysis requires recognizing the limits of the Norman Conquest's geographic scope.
