Pepin the Short's greatest achievements include solidifying the Carolingian dynasty by being the first king of the Franks from that line and securing the Papal States for the Pope. He deposed the last Merovingian king, Childeric III, effectively ending Merovingian rule and establishing a more centralized authority. Pepin also initiated military campaigns that expanded Frankish territory, and he strengthened the relationship between the Frankish kingdom and the Catholic Church, which laid the groundwork for the future power of the Carolingians.
