200 years to the day later, St. Stephen was crowned the first king of Hungary, ruling according to the dictum, “The nation with one language and one set of customs is weak and feeble”.
Charlemagne did quite a number on the face of Western Europe! He defeated and converted the Saxons. And he beat the Lombards at their own game. And for that he was even awarded the “Lombardy Trophy”!

My family is descended from Charlemagne. But, of course, so is anyone of mainly English, French or other Western European ancestry.
