Franks

The Franks were a cultural people that inhabited the Kingdom of Francia following the dissolution of the Western Roman Empire in 476 CE.
==History==
By the time Charlemagne died in 811, his son, Louis the Pious, was made emperor, but after he died, the Carolingian Empire was divided between his sons, one of which was Charles the Bald, who ruled over West Francia. During this period, Paris was invaded by Vikings in 845, which was famously led by Ragnar Lothbrok, and later in 885–886 when ruled by Charles the Fat.Assassin's Creed: Valhalla – The Siege of Paris
Louis II of Italy appointed the Order's Paladin, Fulke, to decipher Isu text that was transcribed by a palatinus during Charlemagne's reign, ultimately leading to her arrival in England, her encounter with and subsequent torture of Sigurd Styrbjornsson, culminating in her eventual death at the hands of Sigurd's adopted sister, Eivor Varinsdottir in 875.
In 884, Charles the Fat began a series of military campaigns against the Norse in Francia, with plans to conquer England thereafter. This led to one Toka Sinricsdottir to appeal to Eivor for help. Eivor, now jarlskona of the Raven Clan, thus took part in the siege of Paris to prevent Ravensthorpe from being conquered by the Franks, eventually leading to the deposition of Charles the Fat from power.
After the death of Charles the Fat, the Carolingian Empire ultimately collapsed, never to rise again, with Odo of France being recognized as King of West Francia. 
By the 10th century, the Templars held great influence among the Franks, a situation which prompted the Hidden Ones to move to curtail the Order's reach extending into Norse lands.Assassin's Creed: Last Descendants – Fate of the Gods
