We are talking about Charlemagne, better known as Charles the Great. He was one of the greatest Franks and conquered a large portion of Western European territories. He supported the church and the pope, and everywhere he conquered, he forced people to convert to Christianity. Indeed, the relationship with the church was so good that Pope Leo III crown Charles as the emperor. This act increased the power and presence of the Catholic Church over Europe.
