Notes - Charlemsgne was still alive when Pepin died in 810 and Charles the Younger the following year. In 813, Charles summoned Louis from Aquitaine and assembled his nobles from the kingdom. With only one surviving son, Charles crowned Louis, who was thirty-five years old and experienced in governing and war, naming him as co-emperor and co-King of the Franks with a half share of the empire, the rest to be his when his father was gone. Italy, however, was not for Louis, but for Pepin’s illegitimate son.
