Charlemagne spread Christianity throughout the Empire by going to war with many people. After defeating them, he gave them two choices: Christianity or death. Many chose Christianity, while other stayed faithful to their past religion. Because he "always kept his promises" he killed over 4,500 people.AnswerCharlemagne used conquests and tyranny to spread Christianity. Kathleen Jefferts Schori, presiding bishop of the U.S. Episcopal Church, said, "Charlemagne converted whole tribes by the sword." In the year 782, the Frankish king Charlemagne reputedly beheaded forty-five hundred Saxons who resisted his campaign of forced conversion to Christianity. In 800, the Pope crowned Charlemagne in Rome, as Holy Roman Emperor.
A long time ago the first pope said that it was not necessary to be circumcised to be a good Christian, thus putting many men's minds at ease and facilitating conversions.
A:The Frankish king Clovis I (481-511), a devout pagan, converted to Catholic Christianity, thus strengthening the position of the Catholic Church. Christian kings demanded that their subjects also be Christians. Charlemagne used conquests, tyranny and bloodshed to spread Christianity. Kathleen Jefferts Schori, presiding bishop of the U.S. Episcopal Church, said, "Charlemagne converted whole tribes by the sword." In the year 782, the Frankish king Charlemagne reputedly beheaded forty-five hundred Saxons who resisted his campaign of forced conversion to Christianity.

By means of persecution, paganism was gradually wiped out in much of the Roman Empire by the seventh century. The barbarian lands to the north and east remained pagan, but conquest and persecution gradually spread Christianity throughout these lands. Russia adopted Christianity around 987, after the pagan Prince Vladimir of Kiev sent envoys to neighbouring lands to find out about other religions. He was persuaded of political advantages in adopting the Orthodox faith. St Patrick is said to have been born in Roman Britain in the sixth century and became a Christian missionary, spreading Christianity to Ireland. Pope Gregory sent the monk Augustine to England to evangelise the island, because paganism had become re-established. Augustine visited the king of Kent and convinced him it would be politically valuable to have continental support, and so converted him (and therefore the kingdom) to Christianity.
Christianity was spread largely through dispersions and persecutions, as early Christians were often persecuted by the Roman Empire. Despite this persecution, the message of Christianity continued to spread, leading to its eventual widespread adoption in the Roman Empire and beyond.
