Why did Charlemagnes empire not survive?

Under Frankish law, a kingdom did not pass to a single heir, but was distributed among the heirs. Under the Carolingian Empire, this was modified only to the point of having the empire go to a single heir, but there were numerous kingdoms controlled by different kings. The various kings quarrelled, and the overall emperor was only able to get support from his own kingdom, not from the empire as a whole, so the empire passed to a powerless state. Later, it was revived, but France remained separate from it; in this revived form, it was called the Holy Roman Empire.


Why did Charlemagnes empire dissolve after his death?

It did not really dissolve. It was - in complete accordance with the Frankish custom of the time - divided between his three sons. The western part was more or less what was to become France; the eastern part covered most of what was to become the Holy Roman Empire. Only the third part (in the middle) more or less 'dissolved' over time into a number of Principalities that linked themselves to either France or to the Holy Roman Empire.
