		Pippin the Younger (714-September 24, 768) often known under the mistranslation Pippin the Short (French, Pépin le Bref; German, Pippin der Kleine, Pippin der Kurze, Pippin der Jüngere), was a King of the Franks (751-768).

		Pippin's first major act was to go to war against the Lombard king Aistulf as a partial repayment for papal support in his quest for the crown.

	Talk:Pepin the Short - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The rest of the rewrites were to reduce the panegyric tone and install some accuracy in light of current scholarship.
		I think it is a generational thing, but I think that the majority of English-speaking Carolingianists of the past 20 years or so tend to use Pippin (unless their advisors were Francophiles).
		An attempt to rewrite France merely as an offshoot of Germanic rulers is a gross distortion of history.

		When Pippin became king in 754 he sent out missi in a desultory fashion; but Charlemagne made them a regular part of his administration, and a capitulary issued about 802 gives a detailed account of their duties.

		In short they were the direct representatives of the king or emperor.
