One of the few names to emerge from the Dark Ages to live on today is that of Charlemagne. After the fall of Rome, Western Europe was in almost complete disarray for several centuries, with different tribes and factions running different parts of the continent. Then in 768 CE, Charles the Great, more commonly known as Charlemagne, became the ruler of the Franks.

This is perfect, I was just introducing my history classes to Charlemagne this morning! I’m definitely showing them this video next week to drive a discussion about his legacy in Europe. Thank you!

I cover the Carolingians every semester! This is a nice quick overview of the period. I have a few videos I made about the entire Frankish kingdom as well for my students. My favorite one is on Charlemagne. Happy to share!

It is a doubtful statement that the Franks should have originated from i.a. Denmark. In any case, this is the first time I have heard that claim - source? It is a claim that sounds even stranger when you know that the Danes were in conflict with the Franks.
