Notes about Karel Martel

Bijgenaamd "de Strijdhamer"; hofmeier te Austrasië en Neustrië in 719; versloeg in 732 de tot al in het centrum van Frankrijk opgedrongen Arabieren onder Abd-al-Rahman tussen Tours en Poitiers; twee jaar later deed hij hetzelfde met de opstandig geworden Friezen; toen de Frankische koning Theoderik IV in 737 stierf, nam Karel in feite de koninklijke macht over zonder zich overgens de titel aan te matigen; voor zijn dood verdeelde hij het rijk onder zijn beide zoons Karloman en Pippijn.
