Charlemagne's empire was divided into three kingdoms, in accordance with the will of Louis the Pious, Charlemagne's successor. This was formalized and clarified by the Treaty of Verdun in 843. The nominal title of emperor lasted for a while, but had little meaning. In the end, the kings stopped acknowledging attachment to the empire, and the last person claiming the throne of the Carolingian Empire, Berengar I, died in 924.

Two of the three kingdoms survived. One became the kingdom of France. In another, Otto I resurrected the title of emperor and so the Holy Roman Empire came into being, which was, in turn, ancestral to Germany.
