Question

Select all that apply.

Answer 1

Charlemagne appointed counts who were usually wealthy men of noble families. The count ruled over a country together with the bishop or archbishop of that country. Charlemagne appointed dukes to rule over a group of countries. Then, Charlemagne appointed agents known as Missi Dominici, or messengers of god, who went out in pairs to visit the countries each year. These messengers checked the local courts and reported the state of the empire to Charlemagne. The frontier areas, or marches as they were called, were ruled by margraves, who were courts and military men. These buffer zones surrounded most of the empire.

So your answers are: Counts, Bishops, Margraves, and Dukes.
