Charles Martel, the Frankish ruler, played a crucial role in spreading Christianity by consolidating power and unifying the Frankish territories under his leadership. His military victories, particularly the Battle of Tours in 732, halted the advance of Muslim forces into Western Europe, ensuring that Christianity remained the dominant faith. Additionally, he supported the Church by granting lands and privileges, which facilitated the establishment of monasteries and the spread of Christian teachings throughout his realm. Through these actions, Martel laid the foundation for the later Carolingian Empire and the further expansion of Christianity in Europe.
