Pippin III (714 - 768) more often known as Pippin the Short (French, Pépin le Bref; German, Pippin der Kleine), was King of the Franks from 751 - 768.
Childeric was unable to fulfill the most important function of a Frankish king, namely, to provide his warriors with a constant source of booty; Pippin was thus able to demonstrate to the leading men of the Franks that, as a better military leader, he was more qualified to be their king.
Pippin III died at Saint Denis on September 24, 768 and is interred there in the Abbey Basilica with his wife Bertrada (720 - July 12, 783).
