2. History of Normandy -Normandy was a province in the
north-west of France, under the
Ancient Regime.
-The name of Normandy is derived
from the settlement and conquest
of the territory by Vikings from the
9th century, and confirmed by
the treaty in the 10th century.
-Normandy became the landing
site for the invasion, and liberation
of Europe from Nazi Germany.

Climate and Weather
The difference between Centigrade and Fahrenheit is a 32 degrees.
Normandy has a real 'Maritime' climate with winters that are generally mild (frost & snow not too frequent). Summers are a little warmer than in southern Britain with average sunshine hours of between 6 to 8 hours per day. Rain occurs at all times of the year (small increase in winter).
