The land the church owned is where most of the money the church collected was from. Nobles and kings knew that when you change your religion, you will get back land that was given to the church and they would be able to receive the taxes from the land. Also the religious wars fought by the Catholics and protestants weakened the churches power even more.

Pippin decided that, since he already held the responsibilities of rule, he should hold the prerogatives of title, as well. He wrote to the pope with concerns about the powerless Merovingian figurehead, asking, "Is it wise to have kings who hold no power of control?" Pope Zacharias wrote back authorizing Pippin's coronation. The last Merovingian king, Childeric III, was deposed and sent to a monastery, and the "Mayor of the Palace" was crowned king at Soissons in November, 751.
