The Frankish Empire of Charlemagne

Andrei Domanovsky's book "The Frankish Empire of Charlemagne" is a story about the savage unbridled tribes of the Franks and their wars with the Romans; about the creation of the Frankish kingdom by the cruel and cunning King Clovis; The "lazy kings" of the Merovingian dynasty and powerful mayors, as well as land conquests, diplomacy, and the domestic politics of Charlemagne, crowned emperor; about the achievements of the beautiful and majestic Carolingian Renaissance, which left a deep mark on European culture.

The Frankish Empire, created by Charlemagne, is rightly considered a kind of "European Union" of the Middle Ages. It was the power of Charles that became the historical basis not only of modern France, Germany and Italy, but also of many other neighboring countries.
