How many wives did Charlemagne have?

Charlemagne had 4 wives and 18 children.Depending on how you count, the answer could be four, five or ten. Officially, Charles the Great (Charlemagne) was a Christian under the authority of the Pope, and he was therefore allowed only one wife at a time. Unofficially, he kept to pagan habits that allowed him extra women.His first known companion was Himiltrude, who is described as a Friedelfrau. This was probably something like a morganatic wife, i.e. of higher status than a concubine because he could not have another wife while he had her, but she still did not have the full rights of an official wife. Himiltrude bore Charlemagne two children, but he put her aside in order to marry Desiderata.His four official wives were:1. Desiderata of Lombardy. This marriage was annulled after only a year.2. Hildegard of Vinzgouw. She died after twelve years, having borne him nine children.3. Fastrada, who died after ten years. She bore him two children.4. Ludgarda, who also died in his lifetime. She was childless.His five known concubines were:1. Gerswinda, who had one child.2. Madelgard, who had one child.3. Amaltrud of Vienne, who had one child.4. Regina, who had two children.5. Ethelinda, who had two children.There may have been other concubines, but probably none who had children.

Who is Meek and how do they take over the world?

This statement comes from the Christian New Testament Bible. It says that "the meek will inherit the world." "Meek" is not a person or group. It is an word that means the powerless and poor of the world rather than the rich and powerful who have ruled it for centuries. The bible talks about the Kingdom OF HEAVEN, and the Kingdom OF GOD, which are the same thing. The bible also talks about that Kingdom coming to us (or the earth) in Revelation 21:1-4. A New Earth is the FINAL destination of every Christian. The Meek here is anyone who has trusted in Christ, and followed His example. JESUS "Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am MEEK and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls." Matthew 11:29 AND ""But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a MEEK and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price." 1 Peter 3:4

It goes like this. The greatest has to be Ethiopia. I'm not even Ethiopian and I'll acknowledge that.

Ethiopia 2. Mali Empire 3. Ancient Egypt 4. Aksumite Empire 5. Kingdom of Kush 6. Kanem-Bornu 7. Kingdom of Kongo 8. Asante Empire 9. Almohad Empire 10. Oyo Empire
