The Viking Age began with a raid in 793 AD, but later transitioned into a period where many invaders settled in an area called the Danelaw. Following his victory over the Vikings, which part of England remained under the control of the Anglo-Saxon king, Alfred the Great?

  1. The south and westCevap
  2. B
    The north and east
  3. C
    The Roman province of Britannia
  4. D
    The lands conquered by the Normans in 1066

Cevap

King Alfred the Great continued to rule the south and west of England.
The correct answer is the south and west because King Alfred the Great successfully defended these regions from Viking invasion. Following his victory, a treaty was established that restricted Viking settlement to the north and east (the Danelaw), leaving the south and west under Anglo-Saxon rule.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify the historical context
The question refers to the period following King Alfred the Great's victory over the Viking invaders.
Understanding the timeline helps distinguish between Viking-held land and Anglo-Saxon territory.
2
Define the Danelaw
The Danelaw was the region in the north and east where Viking settlers lived under their own laws.
This excludes the north and east as the area ruled by Alfred.
3
Identify Alfred's territory
Alfred's kingdom (Wessex) was located in the south and west.
The treaty between Alfred and the Vikings divided England into these two distinct zones.
