Who were the Normans, and how did Normandy come by its name?
They were Frankish nobles who renamed their own homeland after a battle.
They were Norse settlers granted land in northern France, and the region is named after them.✓Respuesta correcta
They were Saxon exiles from England who founded a new duchy in France.
They were the Danish settlers of eastern England, who later crossed to found a duchy in France.
Explicación
The duchy began when Norse newcomers were granted territory around the lower Seine, and the name of the region records the men of the north who took it; within a few generations, though, their descendants spoke a form of French and lived as French nobles. The Danish settlers of England draw many wrong answers, because both groups had Norse roots, yet they were separate settlements, in different countries, under different rulers.
