800-900 - The king translated the bible into English and was praised by The Pope for his work.

FALSE: we do not have a complete translation of the bible in Old English (although many parts HAVE been translated). The first complete manuscript is Middle English, by Wycliffe, written in the 1380s. He certainly was not praised by the Pope: after his death, a Pope (I do not recall which one) ordered his bones to be dug up and destroyed, because the Catholic Church did not agree with Wycliffe's teachings. Tsk.
