		The Frankish realm underwent many partitions and repartitions, since the Franks divided their property among surviving sons, and lacking a broad sense of a res publica, they conceived of the realm as a large extent of private property.
		About forty years later, the Franks had the Scheldt region under control and interfered with the waterways to Britain; Roman forces pacified the region, but did not expel the Franks.
		Gregory's sources tentatively identify Meroveus (Merovech) as king of the Franks and possibly a son of Chlodio.

	FRANK MEYER AND SYDNEY HOOK
		Frank, an old and valued friend and mentor of mine, was basically a libertarian, or a far better term, what we would now call a paleo-libertarian.
		Hence, Frank not only disagreed with the Old Right foreign policy of isolationism, his major interest was to reverse it, and he was the most pro-war of all the myriad war hawks of National Review and the conservative movement.
		Thus, Sidney Hook, the Nestor of social democracy, was in his own unimpressive person the living embodiment of what the conservative movement has become: i.e., the disastrous subordination of every cherished principle to the slogan of "anti-communism," and hence the permanent embrace of war and statism.

		Sidney Frank, the entrepreneur behind Grey Goose, missed that first wave, but he was able to use valuable industry experience to make up lost ground quickly.
		Frank got into the liquor business after he married the daughter of a prominent distiller, and for three decades he helped Schenley Distillers sell Scotch around the world.
		Those innovations cemented Frank’s reputation as a liquor marketing master; Jägermeister, which is undeniably an acquired taste (some critics have likened it to cough syrup), sold 700,000 cases in 2001, making it one of the nation’s most popular liqueurs.
