II "the Bald" Holy Roman Emperor was born on 13 Jun 823 in Frankfurt,

Bald," Holy Roman Emperor and King of France (as Charles I) was born on
Jun 13 823 in Frankfurt; died on Oct 6 877 in Brides-les-Bains, France. Upon
the death of his father in 840, Charles became king of what is now France, his
brothers Pepin, Lothair and Louis ruling the rest of the Empire. He spent much
of his reign at war with his brothers, and in 875 he managed to aquire the kingdom
of his brother Lothair which included Lorraine and Italy. He had himself crowned
Emperor in 876. He died the following year while he was returning from an abortive
expedition to Italy to aid Pope John VIII against the Saracens. Parents:
Louis I "Le Debonnaire" King of France and
Judith.Children were: Louis II King of France . Charles
III King of France was born on 17 Sep 879. He died on 7 Oct 929 in Peronne,
France. Charles IV "the simple," King of France was born on Sep 17
879; died on Oct 7 929 in Peronne, France. He was born after his father's
death, and the throne was left first to his brothers, Louis III and Carloman.
When they died, a cousin, Charles the Fat was proclaimed king, but was deposed
by Eudes, count of Paris. In 898, when Eudes died, Charles the Simple became
king at the age of 19. His reign is note chiefly for the piratical incursions
of the Norsemen or Normans, who ravaged the coasts of France and sailed up the
principal rivers. In 911, to put an end to their depredations, Charles ceded
to their chief, Rollo (or Rolf) a large part of what came to be called Normandy,
to be held as a fief of the French crown. Also in 911, Charles aquired Lorraine.
The last years of his reign were disturbed by the turbulence of some of his
great vassals, who broke into open rebellion, declared the throne forfeited,
and, in 922, proclaimed as king Robert I, count of Paris, brother of Eudes.
In the following year, through the treachery of Herbert de Vermandois, Charles
was inveigled into the town of Peronne and imprisoned in its fortress, where
he remained until his death six years later. Parents:
Louis II King of France.Children were: Gisele . Charles
the Great (Charlemagne) Holy Roman Emperor was born on 2 Apr 742. He died
on 28 Jan 814 in Aachen, Germany. Charles the Great (Charlemagne) King of France
and Holy Roman Emperor was born about 742; died on Jan 28 814 at Aachen, Germany.
Charles and his brother Carloman succeeded jointly as heirs to their father's
kingdom in 768, as was the Frankish custom. Almost immediately after being crowned,
Charles had to supress a revolt in Aquitania, a part of his half of the kingdom.
He asked his brother for help, but was refused. Upon his return, he found that
his brother and his mother, Bertha had entered into an alliance with Desiderius,
king of the Lombards, who was at that time attempting to extend his influence
over all of Italy, which the Pope viewed with alarm. Charles and Carloman married
daughters of Desiderius. Charles soon realized that he needed the goodwill of
the Pope to strengthen his own monarchy, and when Carloman died in 768, Charles
assumed his brother's kingdom, sent his wife home, and broke off the alliance
with Desiderius. He marched to Italy and restored the Papal lands to the Holy
See. In this way he extended his rule over Lombardy, and became the guarantor
of the temporal possessions of the Church. For the following thirty years, Charles
was continuously at war, both defending his empire, and extending Catholicism
to the pagan tribes of Germany. By 800, he had forged most of Western Europe
into an efficiently run church-state. On Christmas day in that year he was crowned
by Pope Leo III with the imperial crown, and became the first Holy Roman Emperor.
In the following six years he turned his attention from war to statesmanship,
and in those years he created many schools and established artistic curricula
for them. He also established a working relationship with the Byzantine empire
to the east, overhauled the judicial system, and did much to stimulate economic
development in his domain. The reign of Charlemagne brought a level of cultural,
political, and economic development to European civilization which had not been
seen since the heyday of the Roman Empire, and which would not be seen again
for many centuries. In 1806 he divided his empire among his sons, Charles, Pepin,
and Louis, although he himself remained active in administrative affairs. Two
of the sons, Charles and Pepin, both died before Charlemagne, and when he died
in 813, Louis was left as the sole heir to the Holy Roman Empire. Charlemagne

Edmund met the Danes in battle, winning several engagements and relieving Canute's siege of London. He was defeated at Assandun (now Ashington), however, through the treachery of Edric, who had pretended to desert Canute. A truce was arranged between Canute and Edmund; Edmund was permitted to rule the south of England until his death later in the year, when it reverted to Canute.
