Charlemagne was a Frank originally, if that's what you're wondering. He's also called Charles the Great, or King Charles. Charlemagne was founder of the new Holy Roman Empire (900 AD - 1806 AD), which was centralized around German and Italian states basically, it also had Northern Italy for awhile aswell. The problem was the new Holy Roman Empire was just a name that had the dozens of small German states under it. The New Holy Roman Empire was cause for many spouts between the French and German people, aswell as just about everyone else in Europe, and caused further problems when Charlemagne did. His three grandsons, Louis, Lothar (Lorraine), and Charles divided the land up. Louis took the West, Lorraine the middle (Part of Western Germany and Eastern France), and Charles the East. After Lorraine died, Charles and Louis fought for his land, over, and over.

The skins look good, possibly make the helmet a new texture, make it larger, so the symbol on the helmet can be better seen.

The only problem I find with Devins models is they are to good for half-life. They almost dont fit in they look so good.

Damnit Hallock, beat me to the history lesson! ;)

The "Division Charlemagne" was founded out of the remainders of the "Legion de voluntaire francais" (french volunteers fighting for Germany) which almost got wiped out on the eastern front.

They were allowed to wear french decorations in french manner (even if they were aquired for battles against Germany !!).

Thought yoú might find that interesting.
