Being often referred to as the father of Europe Emperor Charlemagne the great was an excellent military commander, uniting the Frankish kingdom conquering Italy, Bavaria, Saxony and northern Spain. Due to his conquests and help in spreading Christianity Charlemagne was in January 800 A.D crowned emperor of Rome by the Pope.
