Biography
About
Born 28 June 751, Carloman was the second surviving son of Pepin the Short and Bertrada of Laon. In 768 he became king of the Franks alongside his older brother Charlemagne, the two splitting their father's realm. The arrangement lasted three years. Carloman died on 4 December 771, and with him went any check on Charlemagne's ambition. His brother absorbed his half of Francia whole, and the consolidation set the stage for the empire that followed.
