Norman England appears on the map from 1072 to 1168. At its greatest recorded extent, in 1094, it covered about 199,096 km².

One of the realms of Kingdom of England. The Kingdom of England was created when Æthelstan of Wessex, building on his grandfather Alfred the Great's resistance to the Vikings, brought all the English kingdoms under his rule in 927. After conquest by the Danish king Cnut in 1016 and William of Normandy in 1066, England was tied to French lands, and under Henry II it formed the core of the Angevin realm stretching to the Pyrenees.
