At the height of his power he was crowned to emperor in Rome by the Pope. The link provides a historical account Charelmange & his empire: http://www.history.com/topics/charlemagne

The project site's space became a chessboard for Charelmanges' Empire. The project was never completed due to a physical injury; the cast of characters refer to this project's title. Welcome to Charlemanges' Empire in stone. Chivalry is not dead, nor the feudal order.
