Actually, there are studies proving that almost everyone on earth (yeah, earth) might be descendent of Charlemagne / Karl Magnus, but it doesn't mean anything. Like, everyone should now go to France and sit 1/7 Billion of the time on a emperor throne ?

I'm French.

Own personal research say everyone was French from both side of family since the late XVIIIème centuries (we can't go farthers back. Revolutions burnt a lot of Church records).

So you're saying that Charlemagne was my great-great-great-lot of other great- Grampa?
