Europe in the 8th century

Europe in the 8th century 

Before I arrived to power my father was the first ruler of the flask and was starting to found the holy roman empire, and also began to conquer the saxons which i would eventually finish to do. As a king, my father Pepin was very ambitious and he wasn't as fair as my grandfather and I were, so this lead to revolts and economic depression. He desperately re wrote  the legislation of the Franks and donated many cities conquered to the pope which then formed a legal basis for the papal states in the middle ages. He had several wars to expand his realms conquering septimania from the islamic population and defeated Aquitaine. Lastly, there were many revolts by the saxons and the Bavarians.
