Maps - How did Charlemagne influence the borders of Europe?
Europe before the rule of Charlemagne - 600 A.D.
This is roughly what the borders in Europe looked like before the rule of Charlemagne.
This map shows the extent of Charlemagne's
empire by the time he died in 814.
After Charlemagne's death, his empire was divided up by his heirs into 3 sections in the Treaty of Verdun. This would eventually lead to the development of France and Germany.
