NOOO!!!Charles Martel is the grandfather of Charlemagne."Martel" means Hammer because Charles Martel stopped Muslims from expanding in the Battle of Tours. He never became emperor.His grandson, Charlemagne centralized the Germanic peoples by traveling a lot to ensure his control and also setting up a system with counts (local rulers) and missi dominici to check on the counts.He was crowned emperor by Pope Leo 2 after fighting off the Lombards (barbarians). He helped spread Christianity by becoming one. (ex: Saxons forced to convert to Christianity since Charlemagne defeated them)
