Description
In 712 AD, the quickly growing Arabian Caliphate crossed the Pillars of Hercules, and were heading north to the Hunnic Kingdom. The Hunnic King Rugas II quickly went to the Franks for help. King Clovis II of the Franks declared he would help the Huns if they became his vassals. They would of course, have large freedoms and would be mostly independent, only doing some duties for their new High King. Rugas Akitillid agreed and became Petty King under the Franks. In 714, the Franco-Hunnic army met the Arabian Army and defeated them, thanks due to the great horsemanship of the Huns and the professional infantry of the Franks. From there, the Huns and Franks went on to conquer much of Iberia from the Arabs, although they were eventually pushed back out by the Muslims. But the Franco-Hunnic alliance had just begun, and the High and Petty Kings saw potential and their relationship.

Together, they went on to conquer much of Central Europe. The Huns themselves would often decide the next High King indirectly, because whoever the Huns declared their allegiance to often won the war of succession. In this way, the Frankish Empire grew large, at it's height stretching from Iberia and Naples to Jutland and Bohemia.

But unfortunately, in 872, the Huns had settled into a more peaceful life, or at least refused to war in the newest war of succession. And so, the Frankish Empire divided into three: Francia, Italia, and Alimania (Germany)

On the other side of the Continent, two different Empires are emerging: The Bulgars and Pannonians
