Answer:

That he was great man,wonderful,fantastic,wise,and that Einhard (and others) owed everything to Charlemagne.

Step-by-step explanation:

In his 'Life of Charlemagne' Einhard takes a brutal,violent,ruthless Dark Age warrior and ruler and praises him for everything - except the failures he leaves out and the embarrassments he glosses over.AS for the rest of it,it makes you think what a great leader Charlemagne would make of your own country today.
