		The settlement gave Charles the Bald the kingdom of the western Franks, which practically corresponded with what is now France, as far as the Meuse, the Saône and the Rhone, with the addition of the Spanish March as far as the Ebro.
		In 858, Louis the German, invited by disaffected nobles eager to oust Charles, invaded the western Frankish kingdom.
		In 875, after the death of the Emperor Louis II (son of his half-brother Lothair), Charles the Bald, supported by Pope John VIII, traveled to Italy, receiving the royal crown at Pavia and the imperial insignia in Rome on (December 29).

		The only other languages in Francia related to Hungarian, which is not an Indo-European language, are Finnish and Estonian, which are probably at the western end of a very ancient distribution of the Uralic languages.
		The original core of Francia, the Frankish Kingdom that came to dominate the West under Charlemagne, can be identified as those areas upon whose ruler the Pope at one time or another conferred a crown as the Roman Emperor.
		This reveals the relative strengh of the Western and Eastern Frankish kingdoms, and the persistent ruthlessness of Charles the Bald and Louis the German.

	France - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		France possesses a large variety of landscapes, ranging from coastal plains in the north and west, where France borders the North Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, to the mountain ranges in the south (the Pyrenees) and the south-east (the Alps), the latter containing the highest point in western Europe, Mont Blanc at 4810 m.
		France is also the most energy independent Western country due to heavy investment in nuclear power, which also makes France the smallest producer of carbon dioxide among the seven most industrialised countries in the world.
		The rulers of Francia Orientalis, who soon claimed the imperial title and wanted to reunify the Frankish Empire, dropped the name Francia Orientalis and called their realm the Holy Roman Empire (see History of Germany).

		The "Empire" came to be regarded as consisting of four crowns: (1) East Francia, or Germany, (2) Lombardy (the "Iron Crown"), or Italy, (3) Rome, and, after 1032, (4) Burgundy.
		As the authority of the German Emperors declined, and that of the Kings of France grew, the "Middle Kingdom" (Francia Media) of Lorraine, Burgundy, and Italy began to pass either from German to French control (Upper Lorraine, Burgundy) or from German control to separate status (Lower Lorraine, i.e.
		The Westerners were little disposed to regard a woman as a legitimate emperor--women could not rule in the law of the Salic Franks (hence the "Salic Law" against female succession).

	List of French monarchs - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Most medieval historians would argue that the existence of France proper did not begin until the advent of the Capetian Dynasty in 987, or, at the very earliest, with the establishment of the Kingdom of Western Francia at the Treaty of Verdun in 843.
		This view is somewhat problematic in layman's terms, however, in part due to the existence of centuries-old tradition that considers the beginnings of France to lie in the Merovingian Frankish kingdom established under Clovis I.
		In light of these recent trends, this list begins with the creation in 843 of Charles the Bald's Kingdom of Western Francia, the state which would directly evolve into modern France.

		The French Republic or France (: ''RÃ©publique franÃ§aise'' or ''France'') is a country whose metropolitan territory is located in western Europe, and which is further made up of a collection of overseas islands and territories located in other continents.
		While the main territory of France (metropolitan_France; French: ''la MÃ©tropole'', or ''France mÃ©tropolitaine'') is located in Western Europe, France is also constituted from territories in North_America, the Caribbean, South_America, the western and southern Indian_Ocean, the northern and southern Pacific_Ocean, and Antarctica (sovereignty claims in Antarctica are not recognised by most countries, see Antarctic_Treaty).
		In between are found other elevated regions such as the Massif_Central or the Vosges_mountains and extensive river basins such as those of the Loire_River, the Rhone_River, the Garonne and Seine.

		The Visigothic raids, which were in fact decisive, succeeded because the military defences of the Western Empire were already strained to breaking-point; and because the Roman armies were not only outnumbered, but also paralysed by the jealousies of rival statesmen, and divided by the mutinies of generals aspiring to the purple.
		A new Saracen peril was impending in the Western Mediterranean.
		It was but rarely that Rome asserted her right to speak in the name even of the Western Church; the record of the early Popes who attained to such a momentary pre-eminence was not such as the West could recollect with satisfaction.

		Mayor Vincent Francia predicted that if the plan is voted down again, Cave Creek will have a difficult time maintaining its rural desert lifestyle.
		Francia believes a no vote on the general plan could jeopardize Cave Creek's proposed annexation of 11 square miles of mostly state trust land between 32nd and 24th streets north of Carefree Highway.
		Town Manager Usama Abujbarah doesn't believe Phoenix poses that big a threat to Cave Creek, but he agrees that passing the general plan is essential.

		The editor of the Latin version seems to have been a western divine who wanted to show that not all the apostles had restricted their labours to Italy, the eastern Mediterranean provinces of the Roman empire and the lands beyond the [55] eastern imperial frontiers.
		In western Francia the shrines of St. Martin at Tours, St. Denys near Paris, and St. Remigius at Rheims mattered to the Merovingians and the Carolingians in ways that the shrines of other saints did not.
		There were men in western Francia in Alfonso III's lifetime who were self-styled counts and owed nothing to their king; Gerald of Aurillac is one example.

	Lyon Biennial 2000 Halle Tony Garnier Lyon - Pressrelease
		The two snags which hinder this evolution in the plastic arts are the obedience to religious beliefs and the arrogance of a conception of modern western lifestyle.
		The new state of affairs represented by today's extraordinary cacophony - rather than polyphony - involves considering artists and their work in the context of their history: the works on show derive from traditions and frames of reference that know nothing of art theory, Hegel and critical over-interpretation.
		Thus the works will be grouped in categories according to their function, meaning and relationship to human attitudes, with their creators' perceptions of differing behaviours highlighting both resemblances and dissimilarities.

		His dual role as Emperor - Imperator Augustus - and King of the Franks provides the historical link between the Imperial dignity and the Frankish kingdoms and later Germany.
		In 800, at Mass on Christmas day in Rome, Pope Leo III crowned Charlemagne Imperator Romanorum (Emperor of the Romans).
		Though this, according to the sources, occurred against his intentions, Charles thus became the renewer of the Western Empire, which had expired in the 5th century.

		Western está en las antípodas de la ley no escrita que rige al Mainstream –conflictos fuertes, ritmos histéricos, resolución previsible– a tal punto que su nombre, que remite a uno de los más asentados géneros del cine norteamericano, puede tomarse como una ironía del director Manuel Poirier.
		Sólo al comienzo Western recurre a un par de conflictos típicos, como para tomar fuerza al calor de un planteo dramático "reconocible".
		La vocación para levantarse de las caídas ya se perfila como una de las constantes temáticas de Western, que parece recomenzar aquí –lo hará varias veces luego– y será tan capaz de reinventarse a sí misma como sus protagonistas.

		The Varangians/Russes got to Russia through their technology, the sailing ships that could actually take them to Greenland; but they came to rule the area through forms of large scale political organization that may have been rudimentary compared to Francia and Romania, but were beyond anything seen previously east of Moravia.
		Russia would then always be hindered by autocratic government that alternatively smothered dissent and innovation and then, alarmed at the backwardness of the country, attempted to impose top-down reforms and development -- which then would be resisted by a national conservatism that the government in its phase of being threatened by change would have loved.
		What would help is if the statements in the "Western sources" could be traced back to their own origin.
