  3. Meeting Charlemagne Whew! That was a close one! We almost missed our stop! Anyway, does anybody know where we are? We are in Medieval Times! The date? April 2nd, 742 A.D. This is the day Charlemagne was born a little over a thousand years ago! It’s thought that Charlemagne was born in Herstal, Wallonia, where his father was born.

  4. Just to let You Know… Charlemagne was the grandson of Charles Matel and the son of Pipin III. When Pipin III died, Charlemagne and his brother, Carloman, split the kingdom. Charlemagne was illegitimate, which means that he was born to parents who were not yet married. His parents wed in 744. When Charlemagne was past the growing age, he stood 6 feet, 4 inches tall, (1.93 meters tall.) His full name was Charles Merovingian.

  5. ENOUGH CHIT-CHAT! I know you all wanna sit back and admire baby Charlemagne, but c’mon, we have other places to go. TO THE TIME MACHINE!!!!!!!!!!!

  6. Names for Charlemagne (Rated G) Here are the many name’s of Charlemagne: Charles I and Charles the Great in English. Charlemagne in French. Karl der Grosse in German. Carolus Magnus in Latin.

  8. ENOUGH NOTE TAKING!!! Hopefully everyone wrote down Charlemagne’s names because it’s time for us to SPUHLIT!!! To the Time Machine!

  9. Charlemagne is a Family Man Charlemagne did NOT die single and lonely. In his lifetime, he married 5 times, and had multiple concubines and children. He kept his family around his vicinity at all times, sometimes bringing his sons with him when he went on campaigns. He had only one legitimate son, Lewis, who was left to inherit the empire, which we will be talking about next! Who likes my drawing of Charlemagne?

  10. Charlemagne, Ruler After Carloman’s death, Charlemagne became sole ruler of the Kingdom in 771. From then on, Charlemagne was successful. Conquering much of the area, Charlemagne had a whole bunch of land. However, one unsuccessful trip to Spain resulted in the death of one of Charlemagne’s Lords.

  14. Sports in Medieval Times I’M BACK! I told you I would be here. Okay, so here’s are next topic. Sports in Medieval Times. Come on, Let’s time travel!

  15. Introducing Sports Okay, we are here! Anyway, back in the middle ages they played something called shrovetide football in England, and something called caid in Ireland.

  16. More Sports! The game of CalcioFiorento, played in Florence, Italy, was originally reserved for the aristocracy, which means people of highest social class. I don’t know why! I mean, it’s just a sport! People those days!

  17. Speed up to even More Sports! We need to time travel again! We need to go to more sports! C’mon!

  18. We’re Here! Whew! We’re here! That machine is starting to give me a headache! Anyway, some other sports that they played back in the day are fencing, which is a type of sword game, and jousting, which is a game where people in armor ride on horses toward each other and try to knock their opponent off of their horse.

  19. Our Last Stop C’mon! We need to go to our last stop! TO THE TIME MACHINE!!!

  20. Even More Sports!! We are here! Let’s talk about more sports! Another sport was horse racing, a particular favorite of the upper classmen of Great Britain. It was estimated that 8 weeks in every year was free from work, just to play sports. It was considered a holiday. How I wish that we did that today! Most sports were used to increase the fighting skills of men.
