he wanted to strengthen & bring order to his kingdom
Charlemagne served as the Holy Roman Emperor from 800 to 814. He was crowned by Pope Leo III on Christmas Day in the year 800, marking the revival of the title in Western Europe after the fall of the Western Roman Empire. Charlemagne's reign is noted for his efforts to unite much of Western Europe and for promoting learning and culture, often referred to as the Carolingian Renaissance. His empire laid the foundation for modern European states.
Charlemagne gained support for his conquests through a combination of military prowess, strategic alliances, and religious endorsement. He strengthened his position by establishing relationships with the Church, which legitimized his rule and rallied Christian support for his campaigns. Additionally, Charlemagne integrated local leaders into his administration, offering them protection and benefits in exchange for loyalty. His ability to unite diverse tribes under a common Christian identity further solidified his power and facilitated the expansion of his empire.
Clovis was the first king of the Franks to unite all Frankish tribes under one ruler around the late 5th century, establishing the foundations of what would become modern France. He is known for converting to Christianity, which helped to strengthen his rule and foster alliances with the Church. Charlemagne, also known as Charles the Great, was Clovis's descendant and ruled from 768 to 814. He expanded the Frankish empire significantly, became the first Holy Roman Emperor in 800, and played a crucial role in the Carolingian Renaissance, promoting education and culture in medieval Europe.
Pope II was the speaker who asked all of the rulers of Europe to unite to take back the holy land.
The Peace of Westphalia was a treaty agreement between Spain and the Dutch in 1648. This agreement put an end to the Thirty Years' War. The peace of Westphalia is recognized to be the beginning of modern international relations based on the recognition of state sovereignty. Westphalia recognized sovereignty of Netherlands and German states which meant that Europe would not unite under an emperor. This also meant the decline for the Habsburg monarchy and papal authority who enjoyed support from Phillip II of Spain.
Charlemagne helped cause the unity in Europe by trying to have everyone unite through the religion Christianity. (There are some more factors in what united Europe, but that was all I could find.)
Western Europe was not a single kingdom during 800 AD. Most of Western Europe was united under King Charlemagne of the Carolingian Empire in 800 AD. However, upon his death, the empire crumbled.
Charlemagne believed that promoting Christianity throughout his kingdom would help unite his people under a common faith and cultural identity. He also implemented educational and legal reforms to standardize practices and improve governance across the empire.

Charlemagne (c.742-814), also known as Karl and Charles the Great, was a medieval emperor who ruled much of Western Europe from 768 to 814. In 771, Charlemagne became king of the Franks, a Germanic tribe in present-day Belgium, France, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and western Germany. He embarked on a mission to unite all Germanic peoples into one kingdom, and convert his subjects to Christianity. A skilled military strategist, he spent much of his reign engaged in warfare in order to accomplish his goals. In 800, Pope Leo III (750-816) crowned Charlemagne emperor of the Romans. In this role, he encouraged the Carolingian Renaissance, a cultural and intellectual revival in Europe. When he died in 814, Charlemagne's empire encompassed much of Western Europe, and he had also ensured the survival of Christianity in the West. Today, Charlemagne is referred to by some as the father of Europe.
