Chlothar I (l. c. 498-561) was a Merovingian king of the Franks , the second to rule over a unified Frankish kingdom after his father, Clovis I (l. c. 466-511). When Clovis died in 511, his kingdom was divided up between his four sons, but Chlothar reunified it by outliving his brothers and seizing their lands upon their deaths. worldhistory.org/Chlothar_I/

Childeric I (r. c. 458-481) was a late antiquity king of the Salian Franks during the period of the fall of the Western Roman Empire . Childeric's reign solidified the Salians as a dominant Frankish tribe and helped pave the way for the unification of the Franks under his son and successor, Clovis I (r. 481-511), founder of the Merovingian Dynasty. worldhistory.org/Childeric_I/
