Who invaded england in 1066 ad, bringing a variety of the french language with them.

The group that invaded England in 1066 AD, bringing a variety of the French language with them were the Normans, led by William the Conqueror.

Explanation:

The Norman conquest of England was the invasion and occupation of the kingdom of England by William the Conqueror.

The King of England Edward the Confessor died at the beginning of 1066 without leaving any children. His brother-in-law Harold Godwinson was chosen to succeed him, but other contenders made themselves known. The Norwegian king Harald Hardrada invaded England in September. He was defeated and killed by Harold at the Battle of Stamford Bridge on September 25th. William, duke of Normandy, arrived in Sussex a few days later. Harold went out to meet him and faced him at the Battle of Hastings on October 14th. This decisive confrontation resulted in the death of Harold and the victory of William, who was crowned at Westminster Abbey on Christmas Day.

The disappearance of the main rivals of William did not bring tranquility to England, which was shaken by many revolts until 1072. To better control his kingdom, William founded many castles at strategic locations and redistributed land confiscated to the revolted nobility to his faithful. The Norman invasion had profound consequences for the history of England. A new ruling class, which held its fiefs directly from the king and spoke Norman, supplanted the old Anglo-Saxon nobility, partly forced into exile.
