Cevap
The Norman Conquest resulted in the replacement of English leaders within the Church, such as bishops and abbots, with Norman ones.
The Norman Conquest involved a comprehensive restructuring of English society. To consolidate his power, William the Conqueror did not only grant land to Norman noblemen but also ensured that the Church—an extremely powerful and influential institution—was led by Normans. This led to the removal of English bishops and abbots and their replacement with Norman officials.
