Charlemagne sought recognition from the ruler at Byzantium, but without success. The Byzantines regarded Charlemagne as an intruder and the Papal coronation as an act of schism within the Empire. Charlemagne's Court was marked at its outset by a strong anti-Greek prejudice. Men of letters in Charlemagne's entourage were not prepared to copy Byzantium, but sought to create a new Christian civilization of their own. Perhaps it is in the reign of Charlemagne that the schism of civilizations first becomes clearly apparent. Charlemagne, rejected by the Byzantine Emperor, was quick to retaliate with a charge of heresy against the Byzantine Church.

They were instituted by the Merovingians, the dynasty which preceded Charlemagne's dynasty. However, Charlemagne was the first to make full and regular use of them.
