The capital was established at Rouen in identity be 912, and a western capital was later established at controlling langue Caen as the Duchy expanded.
In run was 928 craze could Evreux county, anxiety withdrawal Hiémois county and the fountain jukebox Bessin were added.
In 931-934, William Longsword, Rollo's son, added the Cotentin Peninsula and the Avranchin. The Channel Islands were added in 933.
In 1066, William the Conqueror/Duke William defeated Harold II of England at the Battle of Hastings and was subsequently crowned King of England.
In 1066, William the Bastard added the kingdom of England through the Norman Conquest.
Anglo-Norman and French political relations became complicated after the Norman Conquest, as the Norman rulers retained control of their holdings in Normandy as vassals owing fealty to the King of France, but were his equals as King of England.

Yet the Normans were still technically vassals to France.
One interpretation of the Conquest maintains that England became a cultural and economic backwater for almost 150 years after as kings of England preferred to rule from cities in Normandy such as Rouen and concentrate on their more lucrative continental holdings.
Another interpretation has it that the Norman Duke-Kings neglected their continental territories, where they in theory owed fealty to the Kings of France, in favour of consolidating their power in their new sovereign realm of England. The resources poured into the construction of cathedrals, castles and the administration of the new realm arguably diverted energy and concentration away from the need to defend Normandy, alienating the local nobility and weakening Norman control over the borders of the territory, while at the same time the power of the Kings of France grew.
The Duchy was ruled as part of the Anglo-Norman realm until 1204, when Philip II of France conquered the continental lands of the Duchy. The eventual loss of control of continental Normandy divided landed class/landed families as members chose loyalty over land or vice-versa.
During the Hundred years war/Hundred Years War Anglo-Norman kings of England tried to regain their dynastic holdings in France.
The Treaty of Paris (1259) settled the mainland territory on France; but the Channel Islands were retained by the English Crown (with the exception of Chausey).
In 1789 the French Revolution brought an end to the historic rights and privileges of the Duchy, and in 1790 the territory of Normandy was divided into five départements.
