Charlemagne tried to see to it that nearly everyone in his empire was Christian. For his purposes, there was no difference between a Catholic and any other kind of Christian, so we could say nearly everyone was Christian. He did allow Jews to live in the empire, but he can hardly be called friendly to them. He forcibly converted pagans, and a large number of Saxons died because they refused to be baptized.
