*the carolingian dynasty was a ‘frankish noble family’ with origins in the ‘arnulfing’ + ‘pippinid’ clans of the ‘600s’*
.
(the name “carolingian” (medieval latin karolingi, an altered form of an unattested ‘old high german’ word *karling, kerling, meaning “descendant of ‘charles'”, cf. MHG kerlinc) derives from the latinized name of ‘charles martel’: “carolus”)
(the ‘dynasty’ consolidated its ‘power’ in the ‘mid-8th century’, eventually making the offices of “‘mayor’ of the ‘palace'” and dux et princeps francorum hereditary, and becoming the de facto rulers of the ‘franks’ as the real powers behind the ‘merovingian throne’)
(in ‘751’ the ‘merovingian dynasty’ (which had ruled the ‘germanic franks’) was overthrown with the consent of the ‘papacy’ and the ‘aristocracy’, and a carolingian ‘pepin the short’ was crowned “king of the franks”)
(the Carolingian dynasty reached its peak in 800 with the crowning of ‘Charlemagne’ as the first “Emperor of Romans” in over three centuries)
.
(his death in 814 began an extended period of fragmentation of the Carolingian empire and decline that would eventually lead to the evolution of the Kingdom of France and the “holy roman empire”)
