Hodgkin explores Charlemagne's contributions to European culture, including his promotion of education and the arts, his support of the Church, and his establishment of the Holy Roman Empire. He also examines the challenges Charlemagne faced during his reign, including political unrest, wars with neighboring kingdoms, and the threat of invasion by the Vikings.
