Answer
Clovis I, the founder of the Merovingian dynasty, passed away in 511. His reign was marked by significant territorial expansion, as he consolidated control over much of Gaul (present-day France) and extended his influence into parts of modern-day Germany, Belgium, and the Netherlands. Upon his death, Clovis left behind a well-established dynasty that would rule the Frankish kingdom for centuries to come.
