member of the Church hierarchy.

The correct answer is A) Charlemagne and his descendants belonged to the Carolingian dynasty and the Frankish King Clovis belonged to the Merovingian dynasty. In 987, Hughes Capet was elected king of France, which made him the first king of the Capetian dynasty.

Frankish aristocrats founded the Carolingian Dynasty. Indeed, it was Charles Martell who defeated the Moors in Spain and stopped the fast spread of Islam to western Europe in the Battle of Tours in 732. With the important victory, Martell was renown as the savior of Christianity in that part of Europe. The descendants of Martell were the Carolingians. Little by little, the Pope began to favor the Carolingians instead of the Merivingeas.
