By their own account, they were holding bits of tree.
The Normans had just sorted the proper Anglo-Saxon army.
Armed with proper weapons.
Carry on with the joke. It's funny

You've "dealt" with nothing and your "funny" scenario of gurning locals is pure fantasy.
Whilst the rest of the country were either defeated or surrendered unconditionally, those brave Men of Kent, and indeed Kentish Men, hammered out a conditional surrender on their terms. William definitely shit himself, agreed as quickly as he could and trotted off to Essex, which has a much quainter motto than Unconquered......."Many Minds One Heart".

As Bob Monkhouse often said: "People can tell I'm from Kent just by looking at me - they mutter it forcefully under their breath as they walk past."
I thought it was just Norfolk (and immigrants) that inbred.

I've already dealt with "Invicta" pages ago
The history of Kent is funnier.
"Legend has it that, while marching from the 1066 battle site at Hastings, William marched on to London on his way to the (then) capital Winchester. While passing through Kent, the local people picked up branches and marched at William's men. Scared, William and his army took flight and took a different route to London. As the people of Kent felt that they had chased William away, they adopted "Invicta" as a county motto."
Blatantly, the Conqueror wasn't scared, but took pity on a bunch of gurning yokels clutching bits of tree. Probably didn't stop laughing until he got to London.
Invicta = undefeated, not making you adversary laugh so much he lets you off

"All that means is that they didn’t have the arse for a scrap and needed big walls to hide behind in case frenchie came visiting."
There was fuck all in Essex worth pillaging. Until the east end overflowed and took it over Essex was basically Nebraska. In fact I reckon until Basildon town centre got built the yokels were still building walls out of leftover hay and their own shit.
Kent has a proud noble history going back millennia and a culture in its own right. Go and tell a foreigner/northerner you're from Kent and they'll think of castles and merry old england. Tell one you're from Essex and they'll think of Gemma Collins

When Caesar rocked up in 55 BC he reckoned that the Cantii (Kent) tribe were near as damn it Gauls (ie French) in their habits.
The Trinovantes (Essex) were the big boys and of course teamed up with the Iceni (Norfolk) to create havoc.
Kent did FUCK ALL.
Surrender monkeys.

Imagine a group of people so shit-scared of the cheese-eating, surrender monkeys that they had to build a load of castles to wet their pants behind.
In fact, that whole castle thing has just raised my contempt level for them.

7 times more castles in Kent than Essex. Plus Essex has Dale Farm and Pound Lane.

Essex has got some phenomenal countryside and history. Kent has got a little bit of history, some apples, and a load of caravan sites. Also, you can see France from Kent so that marks it down a fair bit before you’ve really got going.

I grew up in Essex (the name gives it away) but if I had to choose between the two I'd take Kent any day. (Just not the Rochester area)
