  1. Definitely not one man. Charlemagne was only able to do what he did because of many Frankish kings and people before him. He didn’t exactly start from scratch and many of the processes he continued were already in motion. That being said he still performed great deeds that someone else may not have been able to achieve

  2. Burgundy didn’t really come from Lotharingia. It was a rebellious French Duchy that acquired a lot of land in what once was Lotharingia. Also Charlemagne didn’t divide his lands. He passed all of it on to his only surviving son, Louis the Pious. His sons then divided the realm into East, West and Middle. East Frankis would eventually become the holy Roman Empire and then with a lot of roundabouts and the rise of nationalism Germany would be created out of the mess. The west had a more direct path to becoming France with the Capetians trying to centralize power and renaming the kingdom to France. The Middle part, Lotharingia, was ineed divided between East and West

  4. Yeah from him, and everyone else alive at the time who had kids. So that isn’t really special
