    Notes:

    History:
    He was also known as Clodius V, and Clodion.

    Often described as "King of the Franks", Chlodio may be more accurately referred to as a "Chieftain of the Salian Franks". Frankish warriors served as Roman soldiers; and this service was rewarded as the Salians were allowed to spread out from their "reservation" known as Toxandria (Tiesterbant near Campine in the southern Netherlands) into what is to-day Begium, northern France as well as along the lower Rhine. Much of this expansion was peaceful, although in 428 and again in 450 the Roman general Ætius crushed Frankish uprisings led by Chodio. At other times, there was close co-operation as in the Frankish support given Ætius in his defeat of the Huns near Orléans in 451.

    Other Events and Attributes:

    • General Information: The uncertainty surrounding these early chieftains is illustrated by the legend that Merovich was said to have been born of two fathers. When already pregnant by King Chlodio, his mother went swimming in the ocean where she was seduced by an unknown marine creature, a bestæ Neptuni Quinotauri similis. This creature, part man, part bull, and part marine creature, impregnated the Queen a second time. Thus Merovech carried the blood of the Frankish rulers as well as that of an aquatic creature.
    • Crowned: 448; He became the Chieftain of the Salian Frank in 448.
    • Reign: From 450 to 458; Chieftain of the Salian Franks (Merovingian dynasty)
    • Military: 451; In 451, he defeated Attila "the Hun".

    • Reign: From 458 to 481; Chieftain of the Salian Franks (Merovingian dynasty)
    • Crowned: 463; He began to lead the Franks prior to 463 and was the last Frankish chieftain [Chieftain of the Salian Franks] to continue the tradition of service under Roman commanders. Although he had some sort of falling out with the Roman commanders in Northern Gaul, he remained intimately involved in the world of late Roman civilization. He may have received direct subsidies from Constantinople as well. He later adopted the title, "King of the Franks" and ruled as such. He lead a life of debauchery according to Gregory of Tours, and was deposed and fled to Thuringia. For the next eight years, northern Gaul was ruled by General Ægidius. Thereafter with Saxon support, Childeric regained his throne.
