Charlemagne believed that his power was divinely granted by God. He saw himself as a protector of the Christian faith and viewed his role as a king as sanctioned by divine authority. This belief was further solidified when Pope Leo III crowned him Emperor of the Romans in 800 AD, symbolizing the church's endorsement of his rule and reinforcing the idea that his authority was derived from God.
