No, Charlemagne founded the Carolingian Empire.
Charlemagne's Empire was created legally when Pope Leo III crowned him Emperor of the Romans on December 25, 800. The Empire included the Kingdom of the Franks, which he inherited, together with large amounts of territory he conquered and annexed to that kingdom, and the Kingdom of the Lombards, which he also conquered but maintained as a separate kingdom.
Charlemagne ruled the Carolingian Empire. He was also the king of multiple countries; he was King of the Franks and separately King of the Lombards. The land was divided among the king's sons in those days, but Charlemagne only had one son who survived him, so the empire and kingdoms remained intact. When Charlemagne's son died, one of his grandsons inherited the empire, and both he and the other grandsons inherited separate kingdoms. They had wars with each other, and the authority of the empire gradually declined. For a number of decades, there was no emperor at all. The imperial title was restored by Emperor Otto I in 962. His empire, however, did not include the Kingdom of the Franks, or France, as it is now called, and is not called the Carolingian Empire, but the Holy Roman Empire instead. The Holy Roman Empire was destroyed by Napoleon about 850 years later. Many people regard the Holy Roman Empire as the same thing as the Carolingian Empire, and they would say Charlemagne's empire was destroyed by Napoleon. Most historians, however, take the position that Charlemagne's empire fell apart in the wars among his grandsons.

Charlemagne had a single surviving son, Louis the Pious. He inherited Charlemagne's empire and later passed it to his three sons. The empire was divided between the young men. Although the modern boundaries are somewhat different, their territories formed the basis of some of Europe's modern countries. Louis the German inherited modern Germany. Charles the Bald inherited what would become France. The area between the two, including Italy, went to Lothar.
The treaty that divided Charlemagne's empire was the Treaty of Verdun.
