  • Germany and France

  • Italy and Spain

  • Austria and Hungary

  • Belgium and Netherlands

Answer

The struggles between the brothers set the groundwork for the development of Germany and France. After the death of Charlemagne, his kingdom was divided between his three sons. This led to a series of wars between the brothers as they fought to control the kingdom. The wars ended with the Treaty of Verdun in 843, which divided the kingdom into three parts: East Francia, West Francia, and Middle Francia.
