6. Charlemagne When Pepin died in 768, his kingdom was divided between his two sons. His son Carloman died within a few years. Pepin’s other son Charles then became King of the Franks. He is best known by his French name Charlemagne which means “Charles the Great”. What were Charlemagne’s two goals? Wanted to bring all of western Europe under his rule Wanted all Germanic tribes to become Christian. To achieve these goals, he waged a series of wars. Frist he defeated the Lombards in Italy. Next, he attacked Saxons in what’s now Northern Germany. Eventually the Saxons accepted Christianity.

7. Charlemagne also led his armies in several campaigns across the Pyrenees Mountains to fight the Muslims in Spain. A mountain people known as Basques did not want the Frankish armies to cross their territory. When Charlemagne was returning home from one of his Spanish campaigns, Basque warriors attacked the rear guard of his army in a narrow mountain pass. The rear guard was led by Roland, a fine warrior. Since he had far fewer soldiers than the Basques (Spanish Muslims), he lost the battle. Even so, the fight was remembered, told, and retold throughout Europe. Over time, it became legend and was written down in French as a poem called The Song of Roland.
