Charlemagne, or Charles the Great, began his career as King of the Franks in 768 CE. Having inherited a diverse and restless population, he reforged his kingdom by integrating old traditions with new forms of governance and grew an empire that stretched across Europe. In addition to his political acumen, Charlemagne's natural curiosity encouraged the Carolingian Renaissance, transforming his court into a hub for diplomats and intellectuals alike.
Charlemagne's leader ability is an epithet he is often associated with because of the influence of his reign and the legacy he left across a large area of Europe.
