Rulers of France Source: Official Records After Hannibal crossed the Alps in 218 B.C., the Romans held possession of Gaul until 428 A.D.. when the Franks, (Merovingian branch) a Germanic people, expelled them as a governing class, and began the gradual establishment of the Kingdom of France, which then included Belgium and the Rhine Valley to the sea, as well as much of Germany. The first great Merovingian king was Clovis (Chlodwig, Ludwig. Louis) son of Childeric, who began to reign in 481 A.D. The Dynasty lasted until Childeric III, 742, when Charles Martel, conqueror of the invading Saracens, took hold. Meantime the Merovingians had split into east and west classes, called Austrasians and Neustrians. The mayors of the palace were often the real rulers. The first powerful mayor of the palace was Pepin of Heristal (687-714); and the next after him was Acc. his natural son, Charles Martel (martel means hammer), father of King Pepin the Short and grandfather of Charlemagne (Charles the Great) who, in 800, at Rome, was crowned Emperor by Pope Leo III. The original Pepin in history came from Landen, in what is now Belgium, north of Liege, but his origin is obscure. The Pepins were warriors. Charlemagne and his brother Carloman, who were born at or near Landen, were to rule jointly over France, Germany, Spain and Italy; Carloman lived only three years thereafter. Charlemagne died in 814, at Aix la Chapelle, which the Germans call Aachen. His grandsons fought among themselves with armies backing them, but made peace at Verdun in 843 and the empire was divided. France fell to Charles the Bald, son of King Louis, and thereafter was a separate kingdom.
