		After the division of the empire among Charlemagne's three grandsons with the Treaty of Verdun in 843, the Carolingians initially continued to hold the throne in all three sections that were created.
		In the West, which was the nucleus of later France, they continued to be the ruling dynasty until a minor branch of the family, the Capetians, ascended the (by that time) French throne in 987.
		In the Middle, with the empty title of "Emperor" and the kingdom of Lotharingia which included Northern Italy, the major branch of the family ruled till 887, but further division was based on the Treaty of Mersen in 870.
