MAPPING THE WEST Europe and the Mediterranean, c. 1150
A comparison with Mapping the West in Chapter 9 reveals the major changes wrought during the century 1050–1150. England was politically tied to the continent with the Norman invasion of 1066. Soon the Seljuk Turks settled most of Anatolia, and the eastern wing of Byzantium was tightly wedged around Constantinople. At the end of the eleventh century, a narrow ribbon of crusader states was set up in the Holy Land. Meanwhile, Sicily and southern Italy came under Norman rule.
