Charlemagne, Carolus Magnus, Charles the Great, king of the Franks and emperor of Western Europe, was born in 742 and became an undisputed leader and one of the great centers of power in history, the Holy Roman Empire.
Charlemagne's empire was founded on the fighting strength of the Franks, a confederation of fierce barbarian tribes from the fields of the Rhine in Germany, filling the void left by the fall of ancient Rome. His broad ambition, often augmented by the pretense of spreading Christianity, included France, Germany, Italy, and many other territories.
An aggressive conqueror, sagacious politician, and statesman, and a very successful General, Charlemagne set the stage for his vast empire which, in different forms, has reached the 20th century.
