    Notes:

    Charles III, "The Simple" King Of The Franks became king in 893. He recognized
    the Norsemen's conquest of Normandy, but added to his territory by seizing
    Lorraine. The mistakes of the previous kings were too costly, however. The
    nobles had been allowed to gain power, and they deposed Charles in 923.
