 | | Moravians, Bulgars, Croats, Serbs, and Poles all sought to overthrow the Avars, but their power was not broken until Charlemagne. |
 | | The decline of the kingdom of the East Franks, after the death of Charlemagne, was favourable to the development of a great Slavonic power, and Swatopluk, ruler of Great Moravia, sought to establish a permanent Moravian kingdom, but the appearance of the Magyars put an END to these schemes. |
