Augustine of Hippo

Augustine of Hippo was said to be one of the most influential leaders in the development

of western christianity. Born on November 13, 354 would be one of the most famous

theologians in the world. He started a theological system that dominated the mediaeval

church until the early thirteenth century and is still felt today. His life is well known

through his letters, in which over 200 have survived. His most famous work was titled

Confessions, written in about 397. This piece of writing is listed as a long prayer of

penitence and thanksgiving for god. Aurelius Augustinus was born in Thagaste around

North Africa. He was the son of Patricius and Monica. His father was pagan, while his

mother was a devoted follower of christianity. After a long controversy of what religion he

would join, he converted to christianity. He was baptized by Ambrose in 387. After the

death of his mother, he returned to Thagaste, and spent the rest of his life in monastic

retirement.

Alaric

Alaric was hands down the greatest Visigoth leader ever. He was the

chief, leader, king of the Visigoths from 395-410. Alaric was born in the

year of 370, in Peuce Island, Dobruja. He lead many victorious attacks,

including one that no other germanic leader had done. He and his

army took the city of Rome. Originally, the plan was to settle his

people in the Roman Empire, but eventually sacked the city and set

the tone for the decline of power in the west. Alaric was one of the

best leaders of any nation, not only for the results but the process. He

goes down in history as a man who passed most of his life with the

imperial system, trying only to profit as much as possible from his own

power. Alaric died at Consentia in 410, and was buried in the Bucentus

River.

was a major conflict at this point in time. Justin died on August 1,527. The town that was known as Anazarbus, located in modern dayTurkey, was re-named Justinopolis in 525 in honor of this fantasticemperor.

Pope Leo III

Pope Leo III could claim be blamed for creating the greatest thing Europe has ever

seen. When Charlemagne told the Pope that he would be protected, Leo III named

him the Roman Emperor. With this power, Charlemagne dominated most of Europe

and made Rome the strongest It has ever been. Pope Leo III was born in 750, and

was emperor from 795 to 816. He was elected Pope only a day after his predecessor,

Adrian I, died. Pope Leo was attacked in 799, the attackers unsuccessfully tried to

gouge out his eyes and cut his tongue off. He was found by Magnus Forteman and

his army of 700. They sent him to a monastery, but he then escaped and made his

way to Paderborn. He would meet Charlemagne, where he escorted Leo back to

Rome. The crowning of Roman Emperor soon followed, and history played out. Pope

Leo III died on June 12, 816. Leo III was originally placed in his own monument, but

was later removed and placed with the previous Leos.

hero in the works of literature, and is well deserved the title. He was perhaps the best military

known. Richard I was born September 8, 1157. He was born the third son of King Henry II, and

was never expected to reach the throne. It is said he was the favorite son of his mother, Eleanor

of Aquitaine. While the eldest son served as king when there father passed, Richard basked in

the military light. Being 64, he was by far the largest man on the field. Richard had many title

names, with one being the ruler of Cyprus. Richard and his army over took Isaac Dukas

Comnenus for the throne. The few Roman Catholics on the island joined Richard in taking over

the island, along with the nobles who were upset with Isaacs tyrannic rule. Richard died on April

6, 1199. With his 77 year-old mother by his side, he said good bye to the world he once

dominated. His death was caused from an arrow wound, received during the siege of Chalus.

of the palace of Neustria and the mayor of the palace of Austrasia. Pepin the Short was
